The Big Questions still remain, though: In what location(s) do the settings made with the TCP/IP properties GUI and/or the Network Shell actually get stored, and how do environment variables tie in to all of that?

Er.. cos the GUI wants to execute %sytemroot%\system32\netsh interface set ip "Local area connection" 10.10.10.101 255.255.255.0 10.10.10.1
but %sytemroot% = "" so no can do.
What's more worrying is that it died too quietly.

BTW.. DMR ... Did you have a good weekend for your birthday.??
I had a few drinks for you... Boy you sure can drink.!@!

I googled this problem and came to this site. I've read the postings and it was determined that setting the PATH in SYSTEM ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES fixed the problem.
Well, I have the same problem using WINDOWS XP 64 and a Broadcom NetExtreme II driver.
I am able to set a static IP address, SN, GW, DNS. I exit TCP/IP settings by clicking OK.
The IP works and I'm able to see it at DOS level "ipconfig/all". When I go back into TCP/IP settings, my static IP information isn't there. It's set to DHCP instead.
When I reboot, the computer loads the IP succesfully. The information is in the Registry. It's just not in TCP/IP Settings..
A little help.

More info. I have the Broadcom Advance Control Suite and I noticed 4 adapters instead of 2. Two are numbered 46, and the other two are numbered 47. 1 from each pair is greyed back or N/A
