hope someone can help me here

ive move my website from a host in america to a host in the uk to help with load speeds SEO and all the things alike... also got more for my money.

ive moved all the files, domain, database etc over to the new server and its all running nice and fast and loading nicly..... how ever

when i try to load the site at home i get errors and problems as my home PC seems to be trying to load the OLD site up?? ive tried the following basics cleared the cache, cleared history and temp files, cleared cookies, change the update saved site to everytime etc and still its loading the old site on the old server.

here is the other wierd part... if i use the cmd prompt anbd ping the site from my home PC it shows the old IP address.... all the other computers i tried... works 5 pcs, friends pcs, familys pc, smart phone and all spot on just the computers within my home have the error!

could this be the DNS setting still changing fully on the domain?? a problem with my pc?? problem with ISP router??

also tried turning the router on and off etc and restarting the
PC etc.

what also maks this strange is the move was for 2 sites on the same server etc... and both work at work but one works at home and the other done and on my other home pcs the other site works but the other not.... wierd.

tried IE, FF and chrome

Try this. Open command prompt, type "ipconfig /flushdns".

It's probably an issue with the DNS of your ISP. Different ISPs update their DNS differently, at different intervals. In other words, your nameserver move has not been updated for all DNS'.
