if its a standalone machine, then how nslookup can work. nslookup utility requires a DNS for domain resolution. So you need to provide the dns server name/ip as well in the nslookup command.

In command prompt.. type "ipconfig -all" Check for the DNS Servers IP. This DNS server will be used for name resolution when you give nslookup command & doesn't specify any DNS server.
nslookup command is available on WinXP.
Eg:
C:\>ipconfig -all
