You've got your own internet??? You lucky swine. I have to share mine with hundreds of millions of others, some of whom I don't even know.

from a working PC, download LSPFIX (find it with google) to a USB sick and run on your duff computer. It might offer to fix a problem, which has fixed symptoms like this for me in the past.

check your IP settings, it might not be set to auto detect the settings & DNS servers. 99% of the time you'll need it set to auto detect when using a router.
control panel -> network connections -> right click your connection -> properties -> click on TCP/IP -> properties
both boxes should be on detect automaticly.


oh & your computer name from the reinstall is different to everyother machine on your network right? if not only one of them will work.
