A pop-up appears 3-4 times per hour to warn me that my
system has detected an IP address conflict with another
system on the network and to consult the system event log.
The system log says that the system detected an address
conflict for my IP address with a system having a
different network hardware address. Network operations on
this system may be disrupted as a result.
The most precise information I've gathered on the net says
it appears (although it could be somthing else...I
wouldn't know) that this is either a rare manufacturing
mistake (excluded because I haven't added any hardware to
my system) or I made a mistake while using LAA (I don't
know what LAA is...).
I am told to resolve the problem I must locate the
duplicate MAC address and either replace the NIC or fix my
LAA setting.
I have no idea how to do this. Is this an ISP issue? Did
someone break into my system? Did I do something stupid
(I recently download codecs off the net)? Most important,
how can I fix this? Thank you for your help.
