Hi

I recently purchased a Toshiba laptop with Windows XP Media Center v 2002.
I have the network cable plugged into the network adapter, however when I
navigate to My Computer, Properties, Computer Name. The option to add the
machine to the office domain is unavailable. Is it possible to add this
machine to a network and if so what needs to be done.

Cheers
 
Best bet would be to contact your network admin. Media Center has no domain
access anyway.

You can use MCE in a peer-to-peer (workgroup) network, but you can not join
a domain. MCE is a superset of Windows XP Professional in all respects but
one--it isn't able to join a domain.
