    Hi dean Welcome to D-A-L

    You don'tsay what your OS so here's a link to Dell's own Dimension 3000 driver downloads page

    Drivers & Downloads

    Select your OS and category and you can download the latest drivers from there.

    Hi Friends,
    Here are the basic steps to solve your internet problem
    1. restart the computer
    2. go to Control Panel -> network connections -> right click the lan connection and click properties
    3. In the general tab double click on "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" from the list.
    4. re-enter the details as necessary.

    Thanks,
    James
