Duplicate name on network

**Snugglebunny** · 18th January 2007, 07:05 AM

When I set up my new computer I let my mother use my older computer. I didn't realize but I was setting up the new computer that I had named it Nicky, and my old computer is also named Nicky. So now I am getting errors that they're duplicate names on the Network. How can I fix this? :cheesy:

Thank you!

Right click on My Computer, choose Properties
Goto the "computer name" tab
Click the "Change" button
Put in the new puter name "NickyIsTehSexah"
Then click "Ok"
Might need a reboot.
