How to find out machine name and IP address?

As you need the machine name and IP address in order to request a valid license, you need to know how to find out the information. There are several ways to find out the name and the IP address of your machine.

The easiest way is from a command window. To open a command window, click Start -> Run, then in the Open box, type cmd, and click OK. In the command window, type hostname to see the name of your machine, and type ipconfig to see the IP address of your machine.

You can also find out the machine name by right-clicking My Computer (on the desktop or on the Start menu), and then choose Properties, then click on the Computer Name tab.

If you cannot see My Computer on your desktop, right-click on the blank area of the desktop, click Properties, then click the Desktop tab, then click the Customize Desktop button. Click OK to exit.

If you cannot see My Computer on your Start menu, right-click the Start button, click Properties, click the Start Menu tab, click the Customize button. Another dialog window shows. On this window, click the Advanced tab. In the middle part about Start menu items, scroll down to find My Computer, then choose either Display as a link, or Display as a menu. Click OK to exit.
