Would it perhaps be PCI? There is a separate module for PCI NE2000 cards.
If it is ISA then, are you setting the correct irq, and port numbers? You
have to pass these as parameters to the module. I think NE2000 ISA cards
have traditionally been hard for linux to scan for, so it best to know the
irq and port. There is an explanation of the difficulty in the source code
for that module.
# /etc/conf.modules
alias eth0 ne
options ne io=0x300 irq=5
This is an example, I cannot remember if ne is the correct module name for
ISA NE2000. Hope this helps.
