Solved How do I remove an old computer name on the network after changing it

[Don13]

I changed the name of my computer in System Properties. Now, both the old computer (name) and the new show up in the explorer network tree. How do I get rid of the old name (on all the computers on the network)? This PC is Win 7 Pro 64 bit.
