Release/Renew IP Address

Hello,

I am having trouble releasing and renewing my ip address
using winipcfg in Win 98SE. I have tried different NICs,
different cables, etc. I have also blown away all of the
networking components and reinstalled them manually. I
have only seen this problem come about with Win 98. Has
anyone else had this problem and have you found a way
around it. Please note that I have tried all of the
simple stuff already .

Thanks.

What exactly is the error message you are getting? In most cases with DHCP,
if you release and renew, you'll end up with the same IP address you had
before, assuming you change nothing else (particularly, the MAC address and
the DHCP server).
