After the Crash

My system was running an ASUS A8N-E MB with an AMD 4200+. Then at some point
the cooling fan for the chipset died. The system wouldn't go any further
than the ASUS splash screen. Being in a hurry and with no vendor in town
with a decent 939 MB to replace the ASUS and having some spare hardware
lying around the core of the system was replaced with a MSI P965 Platinum
MB, an Intel DualCore 6600 and PC5300 RAM instead of the PC3200 that the
ASUS used.

I got it to boot in safe mode and started replacing drivers. The problem is
that the one thing I can't clear up is a "limited connectivity" message and
no ability to get to my network or the internet. I need to fix that problem
and also I assume there's junk drivers still sitting there from the old
hardware. Does anyone have any idea on the best way to clean up this mess?
The help would be appreciated.
