Hye,
Have you check you ip? if there is a DHCP server on the lan make sure to use automatic setting for you connection, otherwise you have to find a free ip address to use for you computer.
try Contacting your network administrator to have a free ip address or to check your configuration

ok, what has happened here is that the ip address of your laptop is different to the ip address details of the rest of your network.
if you go to one of the computers that can connect,
type ipconfig and press enter in a dos window.
go to the one that says
ethernet adapter local connection:
and get the
ip address, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
subnet mask, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
write these down
you need to then input these details into your dell laptops ethernet tcpip properties.
once these have been entered and applied your computer should connect to the lan again.
