About this tag
On WindowsForum.com, the computer identification tag covers topics related to how Windows identifies other devices on a network. In one discussion, a user with a Windows 7 desktop and an XP laptop encountered an issue where the XP machine was identified as a music media server instead of a computer, likely due to a media server application like Tversity.
