deduplication

I have about 70 pc's with exactly same hardware. I decided to automate turning on and off. I took 1 PC. Here is what I've done:

Changed bios configuration so that now pc's waking when I turn on AC switch
Installed Windows XP and configured so that I can turn off remotelly, changed workgroup name to "WG1", and pc name to "ExamPC"
Then created acronis backup image of this pc
I installed this image in several PC's and tried to test
All worked well till windows opened. The problem is, all tested PC's started Windows nearly at the same time, and all of them popped up error Duplicate name exist.

I can't figure out any solution. Any suggestions?
