I tried to run the 'ipconfig /renew' via command prompt
in my user accounts but only get an 'access denied'
error. Is there another way to run it automatically with
admin rights? I'm vaugely familiar with the console.
Please be detailed if you have any other suggestions.

Thanks for your response.
Lou
