If you reinstalled the operating system on the computer that is having this problem, the problem may be more than simply the arp cache. There is a lot more that could be wrong than just the arp cache. Assuming the arp cache is the problem, unless you have a good reason to do so, is not likely to be very helpful.

Are the computer's TCP/IP settings configured correctly? Posting the output of "ipconfig /all" here is a good idea. If there is something wrong with your settings, someone might be able to spot it and advise you how to fix it.
