    If the machine has a static IP:

    Click Start

    Control Panel

    Network Connections

    Select the name of your connection (Usually 'Local Are Connection')

    Click Properties

    From the list of options select 'Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)

    Click Properties again

    A Properties dialogue will pop up showing IP, Subnet Mask, Gateway and DNS.

    Any other IP addresses assigned to the adapter can be found by clicking the 'Advanced' button.

    If the machine has a dynamic (DHCP assigned) address:

    Click start,

    Click 'RUN'

    In the box that appears type CMD and click 'OK' In the black window that appears on screen type

    ipconfig /all

    Hit return

    Information about all of your network adapters will be returned including the IP.

    Type 'exit' and hit return to end the session
