My gut feeling is that you have too much hardware. Is there any need to have that many switches and routers? What I often do is PCs > switch > one router (which handles the communication with the net (or other network) which seems to work. If you have a DC whack the DHCP on that, etc...

I suspect the problem is simply a lack of communication with the dhcp server.
