I don't have a clue, if you will post these the following.
1. Unedited ipconfig /all
2. Domain name from AD Users & Computers
3. List of Forward Lookup Zones from your local DNS server.
From these, I can tell you if you have a problem big enough to re-install
AD. It could be a disjointed namespace (fixable), could also be a
single-label domain name (can be made to work but it won't work right), or
it could be just a simple matter of using the wrong DNS in TCP/IP
properties.
