Removing old network links

R

Rick Schaefer

I have updated my main desktop to Vista. My other desktop and 1 of the 2
laptops are running XP. When setting up a computer name for my new desktop,
I changed the name from Ricks_Toy to Ricks-Toy. Now, the other computers
still show links in the network as Ricks_Toy even tho they are not valid.
How do I get rid of those invalid links? I can find no info in the online
help or here in the newsgroups. Thanx in advance!

Hi
What ever can be deleted via right click and delete, should be deleted by
you.
The rest, be patient, after few boots and some usage time it would go away
by it self.
