I installed 2 different sets of desktops at 2 different clietns and they both got the same problem with network disconnections. I'm using the Asus ET2322IUKH-01 desktop, if that helps. (under device manager, network card properties)ĭo you guys have any other suggestions I can try? This is really perplexing to me. I also tried checking the network card to see if there was some type of timeout period for inactivity but there wasn't any settings.

Nothing else on the network had changed, other than upgrading the desktops with a new one. I also tried adjusting the registry on the workstation from this but it still disconnects: Net config server /autodisconnect:-1 (on the server)

I tried these 2 solutions but it doesn't to work: I know it has to be something with Windows 8.1, since I had Windows XP before, I never had this problem. I actually tried some of the solutions that folks have suggested but none of them seem to work. I tried to look up the problem both here on Spiceworks and Google but it seems that no one else is having the issue with Windows 8.1 pro, only with Windows 7. The fax problem also disconnects from 2nd server. The only way to reconnect them to reopen quickbooks and the shared folders through computer. The quickbooks gives an error message and the network shares are disconnected. The issue that I'm having is that when the users go to lunch (2 of them), the network shares disconnect from the network. I have another server, running Windows 2003, running as a standalone server with a fax program to send/receive faxes. The first server, runs Windows 2008 R2, has a few shares on it and the Quickbooks Database manager running on it. I recently replaced a few desktops on the network from Windows XP pro to Windows 8.1 Pro.
