My laptop (Windows XP Sp2 Pro) suddenly (entered/resumed from standby, worked before, not after) will not get an address from DHCP. I have tried it on 3 different networks, with different DHCP servers (1 wired, 2 wireless), nothing. As soon as I statically assign an address, everything works like a charm. I have:
-killed all firewalls (windows and Comodo)
-rebooted
-disabled/re-enabled the wired adapter, and toggled the wireless switch on the wireless
-tried it in safemode w/networking
-repaired the windows networking stack using winsockxpfix
I did have a few network connections open when I dropped it into standby, but it came out just fine, and I would think a reboot would fix any hanging connections. Any suggestions to fix this? If not, I can reformat, but I would really like to narrow down the cause of this problem.
Thanks.
