2 computers on new network

[Den]

I have two computers running XP with the same registered
name on a network. I want to know if it is possible to
change the registered name?

You mean the owner info?

Or do you mean the computer name?

Hi there,

Ya, you can do that you that, apply this patch:
Change Registered Owner and Organization
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs_edits/changeownerorg.vbs

NOTE: If your anti-virus software warns you of a "malicious" script, this
is normal if you have "Script Safe" or similar technology enabled. These
scripts are not malicious, but they do make changes to the System Registry.

The registered owner name not the computer name.
