I can`t get my local internet connection to accept IP address.When I click on repair,I`m told that my RPC Service is unavailable.Internet service said it is a computer problem.Also,my security center isn`t running.1 person needs an answerI do too

I would check the status of Services.Click on the Start button and select Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Locate DCOM Server Process Launcher in the list and check that the StartUp type is Automatic. If it is not set to Automatic right click and select Properties, General tab. There is a box after StartUp type. The options are available on a drop down by clicking on the arrow down to the right of the box. Make the change and click on Apply and OK. Restart the computer and check whether it has started.Repeat the procedure substituting RPC Endpoint Mapper for DCOM Server Process Launcher.What are your anti-virus and anti-spyware arrangements?Hope this helps, Gerry Cornell

I LOOKED AND IT IS STARTED AND ON AUTOMATIC.I have McAfee. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP ANYWAY.... When I try to renew my IP Address it says " cannot renew because"ip" is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file" Do you know what that means? Tanks,Janet
