You cannot change the computer namde direcly, you must disconnect from the domain, change the name and reconnect to the domain.

Try the folowing, remove the pc from the domain. logon localy with administrator and try again. Does not work ? do the folowing. Start - Run, type GPEDIT.MSC (enter) In the screen you see, klik with right on local computer on the top en get the properties. Here disable both settings for policies. type Start-run : GPUPDATE ( enter ) and try again. !!! DO NOT RENAME COMPUTERS WHEN IN DOMAIN !!!! !!! IT ALWAYS GIVES PROBLEMS !!!
