Hi all, I am new to the forum and have a major problem with XP I am hoping you can help me with.
The machine will not obtain an address from the DHCP server. When I do an IPconfig this is the results:
C:\Documents and Settings>ipconfig
Windows 2000 IP Configuration
There is no reference to even the NIC. The NIC has been replaced by the first admin who was on the scene. I have installed and additional USB NIC to see if I could get anything with no results
I thought it had something to do with a corrupt TCP/IP stack so I used the netsh int ip reset with no results. I then removed the winsock & winsock2 reg keys and reinstalled TCP/IP from disk and recieve an error "file does not exist" I then pulled the directory over from another XP machine and still recieve the same error. The error does not specify which file exactly it is looking for so I am at a stand still. Any Ideas?
