Default dns issue

Hi all,
I set up a network, and all is fine, except 1 very stubborn computer will not acquire the proper dns address so it can be networked. I am using a Linksys WRT54Gx4 router and all linksys wireless g cards. I have 4 computers total 1 wired and 3 wireless. The troubled child will connect to the internet, even though the linksys utililty says it can't be found. I have set up printer sharing on all computers, except of course, that one. I am running windows Vista on the wired computer, and all others have xp. I have uninstalled (physically) and reinstalled, still can't network. Any light you can shed on this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.
Rebbie

Quick thought - did you flush the DNS resolver cache on that PC?

Start > Run > cmd (enter) > ipconfig /flushdns (enter)
