DHCP Error

[Guest]

Hi.

My boss has Win2K Pro SP4. The Event Viewer has the following error:

Source: Dhcp
Category: None
Type: Error
Event ID: 1000
User: N/A
Computer: Diane2
Description:
Your computer has lost the lease to its IP address on the Network Card.

How do I correct this problem?

Thank you.

You need to check your DHCP server. Do you know where it is?

Hi John
Is this preventing connection to the internet etc? Is it causing a
problem - what problem - or is it just another unexplained event?
If you want to find out all about DHCP go here

I get similar dhcp errors in my event viewer - was told not to worry about
it as long as it did not happen every time I switched on the computer.
Below is the one that I am effected by as I am on cable supply

But my ISP says the problem is their end and not mine?????
Its all a question of 'timing' apparently - never have fully understood it.
The connection, via tcpip, is always rectified a few seconds later according
to event viewer.
Hope you don't mind tech-speak ;-) ;-) re above links.

Isn't there another event error ID along with it, such as 1003. If 1003:
