Performed a system restore on old PC and cannot get Internet to display

christyg416 · Apr 27, 2018

Hi, I performed a “restore to factory settings” on an PC and cannot get Internet to display. I do have WiFi connected but am receiving a “internet explorer cannot display the webpage” message.
I’ve tried restarting everything, uninstalling AVS, all the basics. I read on another thread to ping 8.8.8.8 and it replied with the 4 responses so I think it is DNS related. It’s runnjng Windows XP. Can anyone recommend a fix? any help is appreciated!
I tried starting in safe mode but it did not work as well. Still received the error message.

Try rebooting in safe mode then try to reconnect to your internet.

Control Panel>Network and internet>Network connections>
select used adapter to connect to the internet and proper internet connection
right click properties, stay on the main tab Networking, scroll down to internet protocol version 4 (TCP/IPV4)>> select it and click button down below for properties ( or just double click the internet protocol version4 = verify 2 entries: obtain IP address automatically and obtain DNS server address automatically are selected.

If you've done a factory recovery you need to set up your WiFi connection in Windows again since Factory Recovery will have removed it.
