not sure if it will work, but the first thing that comes to my mind is to reinstall the TCP/IP stack
see for more info http://www.petri.co.il/reinstall_tcp_ip_on_windows_xp.htm http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=299357 #JORGE# -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: ActiveDir (E-mail) Sent: 5/6/2005 6:58 PM Subject: [ActiveDir] DHCP client(OT) I have a windows xp box that can't start the dhcp client service. I get an event id 1004 -"The DHCP client is shutting down. The following error occured: The system cannot find the file specified". I went thru the steps in this MS kb- http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;822123 Also, i ran "netsh int ip reset reset.log" to reset the tcp/ip stack. Still no go. When i run "ipconfig", i get "An internal error occured: The system cannot find the file specified" Even if I give the box a static address, i still get the same error. The dhcp client services is stuck in "starting" in services.msc. Anything else I can do to troubleshoot further?
