I've never run into an issue where I turned off the DHCP client service. If you use fixed IP addresses then the argument could be made that the DHCP Client Service, as an unused service could be turned off. From a troubleshooting perspective -- do you get a DHCP lease, or do you end up with an APIPA address?
Are you troubleshooting a specific issue, or just asking? -Patrick R.
