everything was woring great until our network card stop working so I changed
the network card to a new one and put the old IP address to the new card.

Do you have more than one DNS server? Did you create a backup of the zone
file (if the zones weren't AD Integrated)?
If they weren't AD integrated, DNS stores a copy of the zones in the backup
folder in the system32\dns\backup.

We are running primary(this is the one with problem) and secondary dns
server and they are not AD integreted! I have all the zone files in
system32\dns and I can see all zones in the registry, but I can't access the
zones in DNS manager!

After the old card was removed, and the new one installed, was the old one
removed from the hardware list? In DNS properties, Interface tab, what IP
shows up in there?
