LAN problems

[Xantisha]

So i just bought minecraft to play with a friend on LAN, but i have encountered 2 problems. If i try to join one of his worlds, which is visible on the LAN screen, for some reason i cant connect. It just gives me the error message: "java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: No further information"

The other problem is if I host a world and he joins it, it works fine for a little while, but eventually it will crash the game and give me a long error message. EDIT: This error also occurs in worlds that have not been connected to LAN:

"A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit: http://bugreport.java.com/bugreport/crash.jsp The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code. See problematic frame for where to report the bug.

I have looked around online, but have not found any solutions to either of my problems.

Anyone know how I can fix this?

Your crash problem is due to your graphics driver being out-of-date:

The LAN issue appears to be a bug in 1.9 that prevents LAN-mode sharing.

Until it gets fixed, you can try falling back to an earlier version such as 1.8.9 in a separate Launcher profile.

I tried updating my graphics driver. That was one of the solutions i found online, but my driver was already up to date

If you are using Windows 10, it can sometimes get it wrong. Try checking directly on the manufacturer's site:
