Ok So I found an old computer at a yardsale for $10.Not fast (600mhz) but I just hooked it up to my network and will do for a file server.Anyhow,the computer name is LESA and I'm not LESA in fact not even close. Is there a way to change the computer name,other than a registry hack?

OS is XP Pro. Thanks in advance for any help.

John (not Lesa)

You can also change who the PC is registered to with a real easy search and replace (not bad even if you've never messed with the registry).

Search for owner and replace w/ your name

You should have to do it about 10 times and it'll be set
