Installed new OS and computer not functioning!

I have a dell dimension 2350 I had a real problem not getting xp to boot up. So I bought and installed windows xp pro. Now my monitor is at really low resolution and color settings and won't let me change thew. I can't access the web cause it doesn't know which network card I have and Im' assuming that my sound and video don't work either so I think I need to download drivers for these devices but I'm not sure where to do this or which devices I'm running. When I go to device manager It says "unknown" for info display on these devices. PLEASE HELP ME .

    How do I find out what mother board I have so I can find out what network card it uses?

    For drivers/downloads (Dimension 2350) go here.

    Chipset drivers should be installed first.


    Get Firefox!

    I downloaded, burned, and installed chipset... Not to sure what that actually did but it's done ;)

    Now what should I do? When they refer to integrated does that mean it's on my motherboard?

    Yes, you can download it and burn it to a CD.

    All the d-2350 drivers? I searched the drivers and downloads page and a whole list came up I'm not sure which drivers I need to install. I'm on my downstairs puter, I can't get online upstairs cause of all these problems. Can I save the chipset thing to a disk and load it upstairs?

    If I am trying to connect to the internet through another computer\router do I need communications drivers ? If so which one should I use?

    Yes, it's installed as part of the motherboard.
