At this point you probably have had enough help to figure out your problem with the DHCP...anyway, if the server died and you were not able to demote it you will probably want to check which roles was that server holding

It has died. On the new server I am trying to rebuild DHCP but when I add the IP address of the server it shows up with the name of the old server and will not let me do anything with it. I think I need to wipe all traces of DHCP off the domain and start over.

When you go to the DHCP administrator console, you need to add a DHCP server, do you see that computer in the list when you try to added? That server, was a DC? It so which roles did it have?

I have replaced our Primary Domain Computer and I think I have messed DHCP up badly. The new Domain Controller has been given the same IP address as the old on and when I go into DHCP console the old server name shows up for the DHCP computer. This was an emergency switch as the old DC has died. Thanks in advance for all your help.
