Answer 1

Assuming Window XP...
Control Panel
System Icon
Click on the Computer Name tab
Click on the Change Name button
But in the new name

If the computer is on a network, you might have to rerun the Network Connection Wizard to reattach it to the network under the new name

No need to write a batch file. Do the steps below.

Windows XP
To change the computer name, to join a domain, or to add a computer description for a Windows XP-based computer, use the Computer Name tab in the System Properties dialog box. To locate this tab, use one of the following methods: • Click Start, right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
• Click Start, click Run, type sysdm.cpl, and then click OK.
• Click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Performance and Maintenance, and then click System.

Change the computer name and join a domain or a workgroup
To change a computer name and to join a domain or a workgroup, follow these steps: 1. Click the Computer Name tab, and then click Change.
2. Type the new computer name in the Computer name dialog box.
3. Type the new domain or workgroup in either the Domain dialog box or the Workgroup dialog box.
4. Click More to change the primary Domain Name System (DNS) suffix.

Note Windows XP Home Edition is not designed to join domains. Windows XP Home Edition is only designed to join workgroups. Therefore, use Windows XP Professional to join domains.
5. Click OK three times, and then restart the computer.
