Jim;
Do you have other computers?
What are they named?
You can not have more than one computer with the same name.
Simply change the name and see if the issue is resolved:
Right click My Computer, click Properties.
Click Computer Name tab.
Go to "To rename this computer..." click Change.
Type something different.
