So, I have the BIOSTAR A85W Rev. 2 motherboard, and I just got back from a long (8-9 day) vacation. The ethernet on my computer was working perfectly no issues. After I got back, I tried using Chrome to do some homework. (I'm a freshman trying to catch up after skipping a week of school.) It didn't work, and then I saw that I had a limited connection. (I'm running Windows 8.1) I ran the ipconfig /all, and here it is:
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.3.9600]

Can anyone figure out what's wrong? I really need it to do my homework, as the computer I'm typing this from now is a slow iMac. Thank you!

I already tried that, and it didn't work. Thanks, though.

Have you tried releasing the ip then renewing it?

How would I do that?

Thank you for your answers!

Didn't work. After quite a bit of troubleshooting, Microsoft told me that "The network gateway is accessible, but Windows couldn't recieve network traffic from the internet." It also said that the router wouldn't assign my computer an IP address.Funny thing is, i connected my laptop to the same port with the same cable and it worked fine. I also have some more details. I have a 100Mbps connection over my cable, but both the orange and green lights on the port on my computer are on. On my laptop, the green light is always on and the orange light occasionally flashes. Should I contact Microsoft or my ISP? (Time Warner Cable)

EDIT: From the Microsoft Website:

"My connection is listed as "Limited"
This means the PC has successfully connected to the router, but the PC wasn't assigned a valid IP address, so you can't actually get to the Internet. It can also indicate that a valid IP address was assigned but that the PC doesn't have Internet connectivity. If you're connected to a home network, try restarting the router. If you’re connected to a domain network or a public network, contact technical support for that network."
