Hey when I try an ipconfig /release, renew it gives me an
error message that says media state disconnected. I hate
to sound completely retarded but my lan cable is plugged
in and I know my card is plugged in. Anyone know why this
might be happening? Thanks
 
if it's a direct connection between 2 computers, are you
using a cat5 crossover cable? if you are going through a
hub /switch / router, is it a regular (inline) cat 5
patch cable?

assuming you have the right type of cable, this message
can also appear if:
the cable is bad/faulty
the network card/socket is faulty
the port on the hub/router etc is faulty
the hub/routeris faulty
the device on the other end is not powered on
