Windows 10: 1809 stealth installed...and PC now invisible on LAN

Folks,

This is NOT a thread about 1809 and how Win10 "stealth" installed it. (I had no idea the update was actually an upgrade.) One of my PCs is now running 1809. Fine.

Before the upgrade to 1809, all my machines were running 1803 and shares and permissions worked fine. Every machine could see and access exactly what I wanted on my home network.

Now, the newly upgraded 1809 machine is invisible. All the settings seem to be the same, yet, it does not work the way it once did.

Any ideas???

Thanks,
Ken

Good LAN party games?

Most of my suggestions have already been listed.

However, I found Swat4 to actually be a pretty fun LAN game, especially at smaller LAN parties.

 

Asus P5Q Onboard Lan issues...

I've just reformated my pc, and it all runs fine except for the the onboard lan. I've tried every LAN driver on ASUS list, and I can't get it to work. It keeps searching for the connection, but it never finds it. The internet runs fine on my moms PC, so it can't be the internet provider*Frown Onboard LAN is enables in BIOS, and I did try to clear CMOS without any luck.
Any suggestions? It really sux.... I think the P5Q Pro is a buggy board...

 

PC Build Steps

Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval

• Install system in case
  • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
• Turn on PC
• setup HDD
• run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
  • run realtemp at the same time

• While in Prime95 test
  • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
  • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
  • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!

What do you guys think??
