DHCP in Windows 2000

I have a very simple DHCP scope setup in windows 2000. It assigns IP addresses and DNS servers to computers on my lan. I only have 2 other machines constantly on the network besides the dhcp server: my sister's mac, my desktop (2k pro). Anyway, my desktop always seems to drop the DNS servers and sets it to the IP of the DHCP server. I have to run ipconfig /renew to get the dns servers reset properly. The mac doesn't seem to have this problem, my server is never rebooted. Does anyone know why this happens?
 
rlism...

make sure that your client computer doesn't have its own DNS entry. Check the tcp/ip properties.,.. if there are DNS entries, remove it.

Another way:

open up command prompt, do a ipconfig -release
reboot your computer

Upon bootup it will look for the new IP from DHCP.

Try it and good luck
