Virus has killed system problems after install getting internet connection
Hi, recently had a virus which basically killed the system. Tried to reboot to factory settings, but it did not work, couldn't even get safe mode. only way to get machine working again was a fresh install of XP, however now I cannot get the internet or my BT Home Hub to connect and guessing this is because relevant Dell drivers are not installed.
anyone any ideas what I need to do to get the internet connection back or what software I need. ??
HELP Please....!! i'm not a total beginner, but don't go to technical on me please !!

Unable to assist because you did not list your systems model number. Link below is from the Dell driver site. Find your system and correct operating system from the list and you will find drivers for your system.

it is a Dimension 5150.....I downloaded everything from the site pretty much and copy to USB to install tonight, but do you know which file I will need to get my Hub recognised and get a connection?
appreciate you taking the time to reply.

The drivers needed for the Dimension 5150, in the order they should be installed, are:
If you added any hardware you would have to install the drivers for that as well (e.g., if you added an video card to use instead of the integrated video).
