internet zero traffic

[OnlyMe]

I have just built an AMD 64 X2 6000 and everything is A OK except for the
Internet side__problem is that when trying to update my BIOS from ASUS using
the auto method___ and trying to send info to Speedfan, thru the speedfan
program__my Internet connection doesn't drop out but there is no traffic
coming into or out of my computer___can lift up the phone and still find
myself connected, but no matter how long I wait for resumption of service it
will not return unless I reboot___I do not have any other problems with my
dialup connection and am always connected at approx. 45Kbps and can stay
connected all day with just a normal use__I.E. web surfing , mail, and
downloading___I have been in touch with my ISP and he cannot fault my
connection at his end_____drop outs are very few, and have not been an
issue___I am using the same internal modem, HDD'drives from my original
computer,the only problem I can see is the Speedfan info regarding and issue
with : core temp : which is running at 71 deg Celsius __this is my new PCI-E
graphics card______seems rather hot but is not giving any trouble
(issues)______help required for this please

With kind regards From WillofAustralia

Having just built and installed winxp you did install chipset & other
drivers from the mobo manu. & other sites?
And not rely on winupdate?
And if you disable your firewall are these sites accessible?
