So we got the new computer...we got all of the parts in...the friend formats the HD and puts on Windows XP Pro....

At first it looked good, IE pulled a webpage and the USB's worked but then we restarted and noticed the USB ports weren't recognized eventhough Windows XP should see them automatically this second time...So now also while all the other computers in the house can surf that one cannot and the USB's dont work at all. It can pull an IP so it can see the router and talk to it but cannot surf. Any ideas?

He took the computer home to work on it (there's my warranty at work LOL)

Does the IP address start with 127 or 169? If it does it may have trouble seeing the router.
