TCP/IP won't work

Question

Dell inspiron 4000, xp home sp2, just upgraded from ME. Problem: cannot get to the world web. Static IP, shows device working connected but IE gives server DNS error page. PING gives transmit failed error 65. Telnet whines about port 23 closed. I have another 4000 5 feet away plugged into the same network running XP pro SP2. All settings duplicated. One works fine other is nada. Please advise

Sure you have XP drivers for your network device?

I'm in the throes of disabling the wireless and reinstalling the driver for xp. If that is the solution I'll do it for the NIC as well.
