After format and install Win XP Home and SP3 why can't open the Microsoft web sites?

Need help, guys

I had to replace my HARD drive in my computer. I installed my Windows XP Home SP2 disc. After installation, I used my SP3 upgrade drive and my drive to upgrade to IE8. After you install all my drivers, I tried to get Windows dates and discovered that I could not access the Microsoft web sites. I get Internet Explorer cannot display this page. I tried to find out why this is happening and how to correct the situation, but have not found an answer that works yet. Can someone give me an answer to this question.

I have another (used) computer that I formatted the HDD installed and on Windows 7 and have had no problems to access the Microsoft web sites on. It uses the same modem cable like the other computer so I guess that everything is ok with my Internet connection. This problem seems to be only with Windows XP Home SP 3.

Think in advance for any help

Please do not share in the whole "BOLD". Which makes it hard to read!

Please check that SP3 is installed:
Start | Run
Type:
winver
Press OK.
Also, tell us what you mean by "trying to get Windows dates" since there are two ways to do this!

    I did a clean install of firefox 31 and now I can't get on any web site of Ustream, it works on IE and Chrome.
    I tried all the advice I could find on the help section, but nothing works. I reinstalled everything is new so it's all of this to date, but not a single site Ustream.tv will load. I can put them on IE and chrome.

    Hello

    Or you can also borrow the same exact retail edition DVD of Windows 7 and use your product key to reinstall.

    The COA sticker with the product key is either or in the battery compartment on the underside of the laptop.

    With a desktop computer, it's on the side, the back or the top of the computer case.

    If you have problems with Activation:

    If it does require phone activation, do not follow Demand of Auto, but brace yourself for a real person explain as to what has been done for purposes of re-setup

    "How to activate Windows 7 by phone '

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/18715-activate-Windows-7-phone.html

    The above method also requires that you go to your computer manufacturer's website > Support and downloads Section > locate your model number and operating system > then download and install the latest drivers for it.

    Hey borq Queen,.

    Welcome back you hear. If, after completing all the steps below, you are still unable to create or join a homegroup, I think that the issue is to do with IP/V6.

    Check your setting of the adapter for IP/V6. Your network connection must have IPv6 enabled to create or join a homegroup. If it is disabled, follow the steps below to activate it.

    (1) right click on the network icon and select open network and sharing Center.

    (2) in the window that appears, select change the parameters of the map.

    (3) in the network connections window, select the connection to the Local network for the Integrated NIC, and then change the settings for this connection or the file > properties.

    (4) in the connection properties page, check the box for Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6).

    Close all windows and restart your system.

    Try to create a homegroup.

    You should be able to create or join one after the activation of the IP/V6.

    Kind regards

    You really have a 64-bit version of XP?

    The Windows XP installation CD does not recognize SATA drives.  You must either have a SATA drive driver on a floppy disk (floppy drive) so that you can "press F6" during installation or (b) a slipstreamed XP install CD that incorporates the driver SATA or (c) temporarily change the BIOS in legacy IDE mode, install XP and then install the SATA drivers and SATA mode (this can be a bit complicated (: link1, Link2).
