I have a Tablet that I currently use its name is Kevin01.
I am geting rid of it and replacing it with a new Tablet.
When I when I logged on to http://server/connectcomputer.
There was no computer names to setup the new tablet. How
to I either name the new tablet to same name as the old
one (Kevin01)or add another name (maybe I should name
them after hockey teams) and/or remove the old name etc..
I want to do is to be able to used the new computer on
the network. The old computer is going back to Gateway
and so it will not be on the net. I plan on reloading
software and files on the new one (no back up restore).
Thanks Kevin
