Ok lets do this a different way then.
How to Flush DNS in Microsoft Windows

In Microsoft Windows, you can use the command ipconfig /flushdns to flush the DNS resolver cache.
Go to Start and then to Run
Type in cmd and click Enter
At the command prompt type the following and click Enter:

C:>ipconfig /flushdns

Note the space between the g and the /

When done you should see the following:

Windows IP Configuration
Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.

Go to Start then to Control Panel
Click on Network Neighborhood and then click on the Network connection that shows in the new window.
On the elft of the window you should see something about Repair so click on that.

Windows could not finish repairing the problem because the following actions cannot be completed: Failed to query TCP/IP settings of the connection. Cannot proceed.

Please go back to post 20 and redo the steps except instead of the command it states please type the following two commands in the order I post and press Enter after each one.

Ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew



Let me know the results.

Please take a look at this video HERE because it shows the steps I have mentioned. The results you are posting are not giving all the information I am looking for and this will show what you should be seeing.

OK at this point I'm going to say it may be the new lan card you installed.
Suggestion is to take out the card. and boot the system back up. Check device manager to make sure all reference to any network adapter has been erased.
Once verified shut down the system and reinstall the card, boot up and if there was a drivers disk available load the driver with that disk first.
Let me know the results.
