I cant find my service number on this pc , cause i use this to find drivers, then i take my hardisk and take that in the other pc, and install it. I have tried to take my computer name(Dimension 8250) and tried to install the network drivers, but they dont work =/. And i cant see some motherboard drivers :(

You want the Chipset Drivers,and you Must install them First.

And there was no downloads on what?

I found my Service ID on the computer.

I need some help plz:( Want to fix the pc :(

Go here , then type your Service Tag, then click Go for Drivers & Downloads.

If you don't know your Service Tag, downloads for Dimension 8250 can be found here . This is the same link that Dave5 gave you.

From the 8250 page, you need to download and install the CHIPSET driver and the network drivers (likely the Intel drivers).  http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/devices.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&SystemID=DIM_PNT_P4_8250&os=WW1&osl=EN#

Picking up on something you said above, if you're putting your boot drive in another machine and downloading the drivers to it, that will NOT work.  The drivers can be downloaded to anything, but must be installed on the boot drive of the machine with the boot drive IN the machine. 

I download the drivers on another pc, take them on a portable Hardrive(dont know how to say it in english. A hardisk that you can carry anywhere.:p)

What way to you want me to do it? didnt understand what you meant. I dosnt have internett on it so i cant download it from there.

PS i install the drivers on the COMPUTERS hardrive.:)

Sorry 4 my bad english

You can download the files and copy them to the PC you need them on.  You cannot INSTALL the files on another PC, they must be installed (i.e. open the download) on the boot drive of the machine with the problems.
