I have two computers that are on a network. I was playing with the system policies on my pentium pro, and now when the computer starts up it goes to the enter network password screen. It asks for user name, password, and domain. I thought i had a user name and password set up, but i dont know what to put for the domain. I cant push escape, or cancel. I cant do anything!!!I can access the C: drive on that computer through the computer im at now. Help Me!!!

Without knowing exactly what you changed, it's hard to say. I'd try to restore the registry to a state prior to the modification.
From a DOS prompt enter the following command, and select a date prior to your change.
scanreg /restore

Nick, I understand you don't know what to write for the domain of one of the computers?... easy! put the same domain than the one for the other computer!
The true location for the domain is Network Neighborhood Properties, Identification tab
