How do i change my display name on file?

Change netbook name on home network (OS: Windows 7 starter)?

  • I've bought an ex-display netbook from a shop. How do you change the name of a computer/laptop on a home network? At the moment, the netbook which im using has the same name as the shop which I bought it from, and obvoiusly i want to change it. The operating system which im using is Windows 7 Starter. I've tried googling, but have come up with nothing. I've found answers for how to do this with XP, so I tried to go to a similar file location in Windows 7 Starter, but I cant find the place which lets me change it. It's hidden deep somewhere and I cant find it :-( I know this is easy to do, because i came across it on my old netbook. PLEASE HELP.
