    cant renew IP, no media state, no internet

    I am trying to load blueyonder my computer. I just got this one from a friend as my old computer, where I was using blueyonder , has died. When I try to install it , it tells me that:

    It cant renew IP address no local area connection network. SO I cant even set it up??

    I have tried several things now:

    went to run:
    typed in CMD
    typed ipconfig

    it says under media state: media disconnected
    there's NO IP address listed

    went to run
    typed devmgmt.msc
    under adapter settings:
    there was a red X on macbridge mini- unistalled this
    3cometherlinkxl10/100pci - my network adapter seems to be working fine


    went to run
    services.msc
    made sure my DHCO client was set to automatic , it was

    went to run
    typed cmd
    typed in ipconfig/flushdns
    it told me it couldnt do it, that i havent got a local connection

    went to run
    typed cmd
    typed ipconfig/release
    typed ipconfig/renew
    nothing happens

    I tried to open explorer, tools, internet options, connections, lan settings, auto detect (box was already checked)

    I have tried to reset my modem, I have unplugged it for several minutes and nothing.

    I have gone to my local area connection and it has a big red X on it, I have tried to enable it, but it wont do so.

    Under Incoming Connections it says no clients connected

    I went to run
    cmd
    typed in ipconfig/ all
    under description it stated : 3cometherlinkx/100pc
    complete pc manager NIC<3c905c-tx>
    physical: 00 50 DA DE 9F 77

    but nothing much more no IP address, no mask gateway nothing.

    I'm really at a loss as to what to do. I mst have access to the internet as I work from home. I would appreciate any help you can provide. Thankyou for your help

    I am guessing that the ethernet cable in the network adapter connects to a router? Have you tried plugging it into a different port on the router? Have you tried using a different ethernet cable?
