Hi everybody,

Is it safe to change the PCs name in the system settings?

I remember in W2K there was an issue with renaming the PC. There was a tool
necessary (I forgot the name) to change the name completely.

FYI: The PC has got a virgin instalation, no software installed. I would
like to duplicate the installation on 30 PCs and punch in the activation key
later.

Thanks for your time.

No, there shouldn't be a problem at all, just as long as the machine name is
unique if its going to be on a network with other machines.

You can call your machine whatever you want. Most users, after struggling
with Vista, end up calling it something like "Vista Sux".

Cheers.
