Sorry, apparently not. I've been using the SIDChanger from the Power Quest Corp. for W2K boxes, but it won't support XP, and PQ has no plans to support SIDChanger for XP.

Sidchngr from PowerQuest DOES work work on Win XP Pro machines.
I have used it on 40+ PC and Laptops and it works in the last two months.

NOTE enter at the A:\ for WinXp machines
sidchngr 0 \windows /r /cr=oldpcname,newpcname

for WinNT & Win2000 machines enter
sidchngr 0 \winnt /r /cr=oldpcname,newpcname

the same rules applies for sidchngr for any Microsoft Windows. If sidchngr does not work right you need to check the directory the Windows systems file are install in.
