Question : 2 Pc's > Hub > Net/Router, Both can Connect to Net but 1 cannot view webpages??

Hello all, I have a rather weird problem, I have an old computer that previously worked but the drive was running out of space so i reformated the computer and installed a Fresh copy of xp, however it does have access to the internet with the ping command , but if i load up either IE or FF, it will load the home page such as google but wont let me browse outside of that, my other pc ( this one ) can still access everything fine as if nothing happened, what have i done, or what can i do so that both pc's have the net that i can browse the internet on both. I currently Udpdating the old machine from SP2 > SP3 im hoping that something might fix the problem with that update.
I have also Reset the Internet/router but to no avail, reasigned ip's but they are both the same, any help would be greatly appreciative

You could try the winsockxpfix in case the TCP/IP stack is corrupt. I've not had much luck with it myself in the past but it may be worth a try!

I'm guessing you can connect to the router itself from this problem PC with no problems?
