I'm not sure of the exact problem.. Try Start/Run/cmd

This should bring you to the command prompt, and then you will find the commands work better. If not, please reply with some specific results (eg exactly what happens when you try to ping)

Make sure you have Domain Admin Rights at login. I would relook at all apply GPO (Group Policy on Objects). This can be done using MMC (start/run/and enter MMC) Select Console and Add/Remove snap-in for Local Users and Groups, click Add. Revisit allpolicy for that computer or the Administrator.
