How To Correct A PC Name Conflict on Domain

If you accidentally name your PC the same as one that already exists on the Domain, you will receive a PC Name Conflict (Windows) error.

• First - Rename your PC and reboot.
• Second - Find the PC you conflicted with and perform the following steps.

1. Take that PC off the Domain (reboot)
2. Unplug from the network
3. Rename that PC with an unused PC name (reboot)
4. Re-join that PC to the Domain (reboot)

Your PC should now be fully functional again on the network Domain.
