haven't got experience with e1000, but 2 simple things pop up my mind:
- does the e1000 driver belong to kernel 2.4.24 (since you mention version
4.3.15 explicitly). If not, why not use the driver from kernel 2.4.24?

- try modprobe e1000 . Perhaps there are dependencies which aren't
satisfied.

Cheers,
Sebas
