DHCP Client Won't Start
This is a new one on me, and very puzzling. If anyone has any ideas, PLEASE chime in. I have a client with a Windows XP Pro, SP3 notebook. A couple of weeks ago, they could no longer connect it to their DHCP server. In trying to find the problem, I did find that it had a root kit, AV killer, which I think I got rid of. However, when I start the system, the DHCP client service will not start. It is set to Automatic. As near as I can tell, the dependency services/drivers are going. It just won't start on it's own. If I go to the services console, I can start it manually. I have tried the published procedures for repairing the Winsock and the TCP/IP stack. No help. The problem exists for both the wired and the wireless connections. I have tried uninstalling both of those and letting them reinstall; still no help. |
