Okay. Trying that now...
EDIT: I tried this, but it still does not work. At least now it will actually attempt to open websites, but it will take a long time and the browser (IE) will simply give up (it "times out").
So you think it might be the on board NIC?
EDIT: Just finished installing a separate NIC he had lying around. We have no idea where the CD with the drivers is, but it is old... so Windows might have them, I hope. Will report back.
EDIT: Nope, didn't work. Apparently this NIC is plug-n-play, but it still does not work. Either the NIC he has lying around is also messed up, or something deeper must be wrong (software or hardware related... maybe something is wrong with the mobo itself?)
