I bought my laptop form Office Depot. This was the display model. Everytime I
do work it would show Office Depot as Owner. When checking explore and trying to change the name to minethe response "... Office Depot is a Window system folder and is required to run widows..." the name cannot be changed. How can I change Office to my neme without having to reinstall Windows? -- Rudeman |

You can change the name of the computer by logging on as an administrator
and going to Control Panel/system/computer name - change. They may have created a user called Office Depot. You can create a new user account to logon with by logging on as the or an administrator and the going to Control Panel/user accounts. For Windows XP Home you will need to logon in Safe Mode to access the built in administrator account and the password may be blank. Once you create new accounts you can delete accounts you no longer need while logged on as an administrator other than the built in administrator account [which may be renamed but can be named to what you want] and the guest account. You can also delete user profiles for users that you have deleted in Control Panel/system/advanced - user profiles settings. Hopefully some of this will help as I am not exactly sure what you are trying to accomplish. --- Steve "Rudeman" <Rudeman@microsoft.com> wrote in message news:8B3D0914-B23B-414E-A981-14B24BDAE8D9@microsoft.com... >I bought my laptop form Office Depot.
