    dell inspiron e1505 wont connect to internet

    I was on my dell inspirion e1505 the other day when all of a sudden it wouldn't connect to the internet, It's running windows xp at the moment, and I have replaced the motherboard on it cause the old one died on me, when I go to repair the connections it tells me it failed to querry the tcp ip settings, so i reset the router and modem to no avail, I tried a different laptop on the same ethernet chord and it connects just fine, so then I decided to try and reset my laptop to factory settings, but when I push ctrl+f11 at the start nothing happens, it just goes onto the windows load screen, I've tried multiple times, could someone pls help me, I dunno if there's a program to reset to factory or if it's something ridiculously simple i'm overlooking.

    Can you tell us is this a wireless modem you are trying to connect to? You trying with wireless or RJ45 cable? Also, check the firewall in the control panel as it might be blocking your modem connection. Do you have a firewall software like mcafee or symantec? Try disabling that when trying the internet. Report back with the details.
