Probably check the fan. If it does not work, it might have fried the CPU. In that case buy an new CPU and an fan to go with it. Everything else should be fine. That has happened to me. If the chip is under warranty even better. Can you say free repair?

The queen is correct, you might have to uninstall the thing if this happened during the install of IE7. If not, are you using dial up or a modem or a modem with a network and wireless? Also what browser are you using? All these will factor into this problem.

If using one, I would first make sure the network the modem is workng, via another computer fi possible. Go through the entire set up sequence including re-installing your password. IF none of tht works, then re-install if possible IE7. If you cannot get a hold of one,, try and get another working hard drive, install it on your computer as a master drive and make the hard drive you arehaving problems with a salve drive. This way you can transfer files to the hard drive you arehaving problems with. Use it to log onto the web. When doing so, again transfer files to the hard drive you are hainvg problems with. Then swap them out tose if it fixed the problem.

Your final option is to reformat the hard drive. Make sure you have a back up disk to do so. Make a list of all your software programs and make sure you have disks to re-install them. What helps is to go to add remove hardware section, open it up and using a digital camera if you have one, take a picture of what you have so that you can refer to it even for online downloaded files. Take all your critical files and transfer them to a slave drive is possible or, transfer them to my documents, back them up via cd's. Then go through the reformat sequence if you know it. You will lose all your data even if the darned thing says over wirte. So be prepared for that. Based upon your operating system, it will depend on which key you hit when restarting for the reformat. If you have you entire system partitioned that makes it easier than using a disk, but make sure you have the disk because often the computer asks for files for some reason it cannot find and it reverts to you the operator for a darn disk. So have it raeady. Once you reformat, the orignal IE6 should be installed and you can go with that version. I hope this helps. I have IE7 and at first I hated it. Not because it did not work, instead because of its' landscaping. I hate it when I wake up in the morning and somebody has moved my garden all around with my knowledge.
