DHCP Stuck on "Starting"

[imported_LoKe]

Right now I'm dual booting Ubuntu and Windows, and my Windows isntall has been having some problems. I was screwing with the registry and ended up screwing a few things up, so I did a repair install. Now the internet isn't working at all. The IP in Network Connections is shown as 0.0.0.0, ipconfig /release works, but ipconfig /renew says that the file is missing. I can't even access my routers config page (it just doesn't load).

I've check the registry entry for DHCP and all the dependencies are there (afd, tcpip, netbt) and it's still a no-go. It's gotta be a configuration problem because it's working on the ubuntu OS.

Any suggestions? 🙁

TCP/IP Properties set to obtain address automatically?

Yes sir.

Try searching MS for "repair TCP/IP stack"

You may have hosed something and this procedure works pretty well.

The "netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt" method? I get an error code 1017 or something like that.

Static IP being something like... 24.57...whatever, not 192.168....

Static IP being one on that falls in your router's range instead of allowing it to assign one to you.
