I goofed something during install and ended up with multiple computer names

somehow, during install, I ended up with two Computer Names listings in
'Network and
sharing' that are 'almost identical'
And I think that's what's hindering my ability to network easily with my XP
machine.
(I only have one way file transfers, Vista -> XP)

In 'View computers and devices'
I have :

MEDIA
MEDIA2-PC-OC

In both I have nearly duplicate drives
Media shows drives of
c (lower case)
Medea (C) 'mispelled '
Media (C) 'correctly spelled '


In MEDIA2-PC-OC
I have the same drives as listed above

I am the only user.

How do I clean this installation mess up?
I wish to keep it simple and clean and want to only see
MEDIA
and inside MEDIA I only want to see the correctly spelled drive of
Media (C)



Please and thank you.
 
xxxx-OC is created by Microsoft's One Care (so I have read elsewhere, I
don't have it so cannot confirm that).

I removed Once Care and the 'computer' still exists.
Any Idea on how to delete it?
