Unidentifed Network - Limited Connectivity

Well basically last night my internet was running fine and when i woke up to turn it on i got Unidentifed Network - Limited Connectivity, I'm using my laptop's connection which is the same connection way as the other computer so i'm guessing there is somthing wrong with the desktop, any help or ideas? thanks.

I've done an ipconfig for you to see if it would help;

Re: Unidentifed Network - Limited Connectivity

You aint getting DHCP by the looks of it.

I'll make a guess your router distributes DHCP.

In the first instance I would recommend you check the cable between your desktop and the router and also maybe worth power cycling the router.

Re: Unidentifed Network - Limited Connectivity

Nope, this didn't work and plus when i have the ethernet cable plugged into my router it automatically switches it's self back on :S

Also i had a look at hidden Network adapters and found all these hiding there. Is this needed?
