Has anybody else run into a messed up WinXP client, exhibiting this

Notice, that in some of the instances, the server offers 192.36.61.44, and
the PC requests 10.37.36.15???  What is up with that???  This PC will
usually take 10 minutes or more to finally accept the IP Address.

FYI: we use the 10.37.36.x network as an "unknown mac" pool...  So the
computer probably originally had a 10.37.36.x address when it was first
added to the network.  However, that was LONG ago, as this PC has been in
use for over a year.  We have noticed this on upwards of 10 different
machines, all running XP Pro.

Boot to a Linux CD, and this is the result on the same PC:

That's all folks...

Any ideas????
