Problem with my network Connection Status

My computer boots really slowly after my Windows XP re-install. Apparently
there's a problem with my Local Area Connection. When I open the window, I
get this message:

Limited or no connectivity
You might not be able to access the Internet or some network resources.
This problem occurred because the network did not assign a network address to
the computer.

When I try to "Repair" the problem, the computer just seems to hang in
limbo. I can connect to the internet, and my ethernet connection is just for
connecting to my ADSL modem (no other computers). Any suggestions?

Un-install and re-install the network card in Device Manager. If you
have a driver program for the card, tell the system to use that
program when it re-installs.
