Got it working(sort of)

For some reason the windows firewall was blocking everything. I
disabled it and it is all working fine (except the firewall is turned
off and not sure why or what caused it to stop working).

Im of to re-enable it on item at a time and ill post back with the
results.

I don't use the Windows firewall on servers, myself.


Thanks for the help
Gareth

Most welcome - also check out the DHCP recommendation.
