Now scroll down to Network Adapters and uninstall any that are showing with transparent icons. If nothing is grayed out, then your problem is also not with an old network adapter. If neither of these two methods worked, then you will probably just have to rename the computer.

This can occur for one of two reasons:. Make sure to look at the one for network connection you are currently using, i. We already change the setting to never hibernate, monitor, hard drive always on. Ethernet power save is off. Restarting the workstation will solve the issue but restarting every morning makes my user annoyed. Other Technical details please find below. Any feedback on this would be highly appreciated. We are suspecting also that there might be an issue with our DNS, and our system admin suspect also that our naming convention might also be the one causing the issue.

Example adc-d- b dbg94j adc-d- j dbg94j. He said, this kind of naming convention could possibly doing the collision. I don't know if that is true..

I finished correcting a problem like this a few weeks ago and do not have the references right on hand but can only tell you that the error seen is one of the typical computer errors like a 2 year old child who learned that pain in the head is a headache and then has a pain in the arm and calls it a "headache in my arm" Weak analogy but hopefully reminds you that there are limited error mechanisms and they sometimes present errors that in other cases might be resolved by a procedure but not in all cases.

Otherwise, these people in good faith are recommending some very complex solutions that may prove to waste much time and cause much work and result in zero fix. One of the machines yes it could be a problem, but the other two, no way. Sounds like network shenanigans Is it viable to wipe one of the machines and start again?

Assuming you've got it down to 2 machines. I changed the SID on the offending machine, same issue. I removed it and re-added it to the domain as well, same thing. There is one single NIC on the machine. Nothing special about it and nothing has changed. No, we cannot wipe the machine and start over. When you removed it from the domain, did you delete the computer account before re-adding it? I would still suggest looking at the network settings on the clients and your infrastructure as opposed to any AD-related stuff I tried that previously, removing the computer account from AD before rejoining it.

Same thing. Stonebridge IT is an IT service provider. Check on DHCP and reservations? Flush DNS on machines? Does the machine have multiple adapters?
