"part of a domain". How do I make it NOT part of a domain anymore. Danny Deger My Computer | Properties | Computer Name | Change | Select Workgroup and
provide workgroup name | Okay | Reboot.

It is
the same as "System". Now... you say that this shows you are not a member of a domain. In your orignal message you said "Apparently somehow my computer is part of a domain."
