all static ip addresses used

[jaazman]

I don't know if anyone here has had this type of problem but, to me this is the very first time I see something like this:
We have a private network with 254 ip addresses on hand from 50 to 150 there are part of DHCP and the rest are static, We know there are many static ip addresses not in use however, when we ping the ones we know are not in use we get a response from them, leaving no available ip addresses, do you have any idea what could be wrong? could it be a bad NIC? any tips will be appreciated. Thanks
