I have had one of my PC's repaired with a new motherboard installed (I say ONE of, my son also has a PC and I have a laptop, for which we have a router to connect them all) but I cant get the internet on repaired PC. It had windows XP when new but I'm sure this was installed already so we have no disc.

How do I get the internet back on it?

Find the motherboard's name, reinstall its (probably Ethernet) drivers.
