Could somebody help me with the commandline to install a
network adapter on an XP machine.
 
I do not think you can use the command line to set up a network adapter.

You shouldn't need a command prompt line....

Install NIC in PC, turn PC on. XP should detect the new NIC and install the
correct drivers for it automatically.

Its not possible from the command line. You normally install
a NIC via Device Manager or you could copy the .sys file
to c:\windows\system32\drivers
and the .inf file to:
c:\windows\inf
(instead of default name eg oeminfo.inf or somesuch use a
descriptive name eg 3c905.inf)

and when you boot windows should detect the card and install the
driver. (In theory)
