Changing a computers name Windows XP SP2
Hello,
When I try to change my computer's name I receive an error box saying something like "The DNS name contains an invalid character"(Translation).This happens even if the name would be, for instance, "abcdefg". My computer is a member of a workgroup(home network).Any ideas anyone? Thanks for your time |

The right place is on the Computer Name tab in the Control Panel System applet. DNS settings are in the Network applet. Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!"
