| 211726 | 2004-01-31 06:07:00 | I have just constructed a PC running Windows 2000 Pro (SP4) - when I setup networking as part of installing Windows 2000 Pro I stupidly left network name as default which is different from that of my other PCs (operating either XP Pro or 98SE) so now Windows 2000 machine can't see the other PCs -- how do I rectify this?? Looked in Control Panel/Network Connections but couldn't find an option to rename to MSHOME like my other PCs. |
