hi taurus, i m really very sorry for the late reply. Looking at the problem, nothing has worked so far so i guess a clean install is the only way to fix this issue.
Hi before you try a clean install, I think that you might have a firewall or a protection solution stoping you from getting an IP address, this happen to me and others before. check for the existance of following software on your laptop : ESET, norton, or any firewall solution. windows firewall doesn't do this as far as I know. also do you remember you installed anything new on the laptop before this started?
You are welcome taurus, sorry to say but some issues are unfixable and they need Os re-installation.
