can't run ipconfig...Insufficient System Resources??

[DragonReborn]

my computer stopped being able to browse the internet (connected to my router, says signal is very good but can't browse). i wanted to see if i was even getting an ip address but when i ran ipconfig i got the insufficient system resources error.

i read an MS article that that to:

1.Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.2.Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup
3.Click the LogLevel value in the right pane.4.Type 0 in the Value data field, and then click OK.5.Restart the computer.

has anyone else had this issue?

also when i plug the cable directly into the computer (cable modem straight to ethernet jack) my internet still doesn't work. all of my internet adapters (wireless and ethernet) look happy in the device manager.

any ideas?

Spyware perhaps?
Spyware removal thread.

don't think so, but maybe. my other computer can't connect either so I ruled out spyware. both could be infected though

That is unusual. Sometimes spyware can cause resource errors, and it can also screw with the TCP/IP stack. But to have the same problem on two PCs is odd.

Can the PCs ping each other? Can they ping 127.0.0.1? Can they ping the router?
