Can only access my Vista machine with my old, original username

[Guest]

"Hi,

My Vista machine has only one user on it: me. I am an administrator, of
course. My username for my Vista machine was "Mark". The computers name is
"MarkIVista." I could access my Vista machine just fine by logging in as
"MARKIVISTA\Mark" and entering my passoword.

Recently I changed my user name from "Mark" to "Mark Iverson". The two
other machines in my house now canNOT access "MARKIVISTA\Mark Iverson" but
CAN access it with my old user name "MARKIVISTA\Mark"

Somewhere, my old username is still being used. How do I change it so that
I can log in to my machine with my new username?

Thanks,

Mark

If you 'change' your user name in the User Accounts dialog, the only place
it is changed is on the login screen. All of your files and settings will
still be using the old user name.

Hi,

So how do I change the setting that determines what username to use when
trying to log into the Vista machine from another PC? The answer below
doesn't really help me.

The only way that I'm aware of doing this is to create a new user profile.
