Computer Description disabled
(Remove "nospam" from my email address.)
I specified a "Computer Description" on the "Computer Name" tab of "System Properties". This worked fine a few days ago when I started using my new Windows XP system. Today I noticed that the "Computer Description" is now blank. Furthermore, the "Computer Description" field on the "Computer Name" tab of "System Properties" is disabled (will not accept input) and the "apply" button is also disabled. Why did this happen and how do I now specify a computer description? |
