I now know that if DHCP fails then Windows uses Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) to automatically configure itself with an IP address from the range 169.254.0.1 through to 169.254.255.254.
WinsockFix is a handy little utility that seems to correct the problem (it repairs a corrupted tcp/ip stack).
You can download it from the link below.

Hope this helps someone.
