I have installed a new MSI 865GM3-V motherboard in my computer. I
downloaded (from another computer) 8.1 and installed. All went pretty
well except some things don't work so well. The USB optical mouse is a
bit flakey but the biggie is the onboard 10-100 Ethernet is not working
(although Ubuntu says I am connected to the network, I cannot get to the
internet). I have tried several different internet connection

Is there a dhcp-server on your network (a server which distributes
IP-addresses automatically). Maybe you have an IP-Address but a wrong
DNS configuration.
try to ping the computer with which you downloaded the ubuntu cd.
start a Terminal (applications-accessories) and type
ping IP-Address of any other computer in your network
or try to
ping 74.125.43.103
that is the IP-address of www.google.com, if the ping works you are
connected to the internet but don't have access to a DNS-server
a DNS-Server "translates" www.someaddress.com to a corresponding IP-Address
