when i reboot i get a prompt saying i have duplicate name on the windows network. whats up with that :dunno:
Dont listen to him he is part of the MATRIXYour router still has your computer in memory from before you rebooted. You should lock that computer name to the MAC address of your NIC to avoid getting that message anymore.
OR possibly one of your other computers is using the same default computer name. Just go to the control panel -> System -> computer name tab -> change button and change the name of the computer.
The second answer is more than likely the one you want. :good!:
