So here's the deal, i have 3 pc's on dhcp. I recently came across another to keep on all the time to use as a ventrilo server. How would i go about setting this one pc on a static ip so that dhcp doesn't keep changing the ip address of my ventrilo server? Thanks in advance.

If you configure the PC to use a static IP address, it won't even try to get an address from the DHCP server. However make sure that the static IP address is not in the DHCP range.
