Since you re-installed SharePoint, you can try and see if the port number for central admin is still the same by running:
Get-SPWebApplication -IncludeCentralAdministration
in SP2010 Management Shell.

my central admin port is 8080. and i am trying to login to the same port but no success...– KalpeshSep 21, 2012 at 13:35

1You should also check in IIS to make sure that Central Admin is pointing to the right Physical path (ie. virtual directory folder). It is in the advanced settings in IIS for the site. Here is a link that may help social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/pl-PL/tfsadmin/thread/… Sep 24, 2012 at 16:05
Renaming a computer with Sharepoint on is never a good idea and even though you renamed it back I suspect a SID is stored somewhere in your config database.
Anyways, running through the Sharepoint Products and Technologies wizard should sort out your problem. I hope you saved your farm pass phrase because this is where you will need it.
I suggest you create your central admin site on a new port.
with a port number of 8080 I'm wondering it's possible that there is a conflict? As mentioned earlier a different port number would be a good start
MSDN has an article about renaming your server for a stand-alone installation: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc261986(v=office.14).aspx
Basically, after you have renamed the server, run in PowerShell:
Rename-SPServer
Pass the new server name in as a parameter.
Make sure you do iisreset /noforce as well.
You probably need to reprovision Central Admin. You can just run a standard repair and reprovision Central Admin in place (you will get asked if you want to change central admin server. Don't). Should solve the problem.
