  1. My PC runs Windows 10 which is connected to LAN ... but cannot scan


    My PC runs Windows 10 which is connected to LAN & to which a multifunction printer was connected and scans were sent to a file on the PC. I installed a new multifunction printer and I am able to print from my PC. However, the scan function is not enabled for some reason. I assumed on the install that I want the scan to be sent to PC, but when I attempt to scan, the scanner indicates "no PC found" and "check connection your computer with this device." How would I enable the PC to connect with the scanner?

    :)

    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 My PC runs Windows 10 which is connected to LAN ... but cannot scan :( 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...

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Hi Thomas,

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

    I understand your concern regarding the issue that you are facing.

    You may follow the steps provided below and check if it helps to resolve the issue

    Method 1: Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with Internet connection. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with your internet.

    Refer these steps:

    • Press Windows key +X, select Control panel
    • Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons
    • Click on troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel
    • Run the Internet Connection troubleshooter

    Method 2: I suggest you to update drivers and check if that helps. If that issue persist please uninstall and reinstall latest drivers available in manufacturer website.

    • Press “Windows + X” and select Device manger.
    • Select Network Adapter and expand the driver icon.
    • Right click on the driver icon and click on Update.
    • Follow the onscreen instructions to update the driver.

    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help
