Before reinstalling something try to determine which data You are
missing and why and try to re-register this data.

Take a look at %systemroot%\system32\config\netlogon.dns file - are
there any lines with semicolon?
Try to run netdiag /fix to re-register those entries.

Try to restart netlogn service and then check the netlogon.dns file. If
still there is a problem with registering some names You can enable
netlogon debugging.

Run netdiag /v - any problems?
