IP Address Conflict

I get a message on startup from a little yellow triangle with an exclamation mark that says

Windows- System Error
There is an IP address conflict with another system on the network

What do do?

dematzer- I think it might very well be a printer causing it. Iran ipconfig /all but just got a command window pop up briefly and go away- not sure what that means
aamodt- I dont know how to release and renew

All- Maybe this will help- I have two incoming sources of Internet access, a DSL line and a cable modem that join at a TRENDNET Dual Wan router which feeds four computers and a wireless router that feeds one more. This confilct does not appear to be affecting performance of anything so should I even be concerned about it at all?

Thanks!

Thank you, It says Dhcp and autoconfiguration are enabled. What else do you want to know..if anything (see below)?

I did Ipconfig release/renew and do not have an error message now...was that the answer?

Glen Knight

That should have released your IP you had from the DHCP server and renewed it.

All should be OK now.

If you restart do you get the conflictin IP address message?
