I have been experiencing a problem that baffles me.

The motherboard on the computer failed (leaking capacitors).  I replaced the
mobo and fired up the computer.  The OS is Win XP Pro.

Everyting looked fine except that I cannot surf nor can I send or receive
e-mail.  I can connect with my ISP and the netwrok card is working fine.

I am thinking that I should re-install Win XP and Outlook Express.  Would
installing another browser, i.e., Opera and another e-mail client, say
Eudora or Pegasus make any diference?

I have asked the ISP for assistance and we rinstalled the dial up connection
many times but that did not help.

Any suggestions gratefully accepted.
