No Internet!!!!!!

Hey, i just reinstalled xp pro sp2 on my dell dimension 9100. For some reason internet explorer just wont connect to the internet. I called my isp and they saied it wasnt  their problem. they said that theres soemthing wrong with my internet explorer. I did call dell help desk, and they said that they can solve the problem, BUT  i aint gonna pay 100 dollars for something that can be solved easily..   does anyone know how I can fix the problem...  My pc is connected through a router and had perfect connection before the reeinstall. In fact my other pc is still connected through the router and is connected to the internet perectly.  The thing that confuses me is that,  how can one of the pc's thats connected to the router have a good connection , while the other one has no connection??????

    Let Windows XP rebuild it for you!
     
    Just delete the Local Area Connection that you WERE using for connectivity. 
    Reboot.
    WinXP will find it and rebuild it....better...faster.....stronger...  Well, I hope it at least allows you to access the internet!
     
    There are other ways to troubleshoot this, but this is the easiest to explain and perform.

    mesrop88,

    After reinstallation of Windows did you install the chipset drivers as the first drivers installed followed by installation of the drivers for your network adapter?
