right file to download then I can burn it to a disc and install on the
computer any and all help will be greatly appericated thanks in advance

Did you install the device driver for your network card? Is it shown
working correctly in Device manner? Although you certainly should process
SP2 and subsequent critical updates for security reasons that's not the
cause of your problem. XP original release supported networking.
