i didn't know where else to ask, and thought someone here might be able to help me.
i got a new computer for christmas, (hp Pavilion p6214y PC, running Windows 7). my dad and i just ran a new ethernet cord from the router to this room, so that i don't have to mess around with setting up a wireless connection. i tested the ethernet cord on this computer, and it seems to work.
but it doesnt seem to be working on the new computer.

heres one screenshot, if it might help:

Looks like the router is not giving your computer an IP address like it should. Is MAC address filtering enabled?
