As he tried to establish a remote desktop connect between Windows 7 and Windows XP-error.

Remote - Windows 7 for XP Pro desktop

I am running Windows 7 Ultimate and try to use the Office XP Pro system remotely. I am the admin on both boxes and I have all of the necessary credentials. It errors I wonder if there are some parameters in 7 that I'm missing. Any suggestions?

Hi Caslon540. Here's something that might help you troubleshoot:

Another thought, is that you will need to download a later version of connection desktop remotely (version 6.0 or later) so that XP can handle the incoming connection to Windows 7 that uses authentication NLA.

  • Remote Desktop connection between my Windows 7 and a new friends Windows 8.1

    Hello. My friend just got his first computer and is completely lost. She has absolutely no experience with a computer and a computerphobe of full tilt. We are 400 miles away and tried to help him by phone with little luck. To make things worse, I think that someone in which she rose to set his computer did not understand 8.1 either. I've been computing for a long time and have studied 8.1 and feel comfortable with it. But I never configured before remote connection and am unsure of certain things.

    First the operating environment:

    My computer: Inspiron 560 s under Windows 7 Home Premium.

    I'm on a home using Netgear network. I'm not using a wifi connection.

    His new computer: desktop HP Pavilion Slimline model 300-413 running Windows 8.1.

    I'm not sure of its network connections.

    Note: I use this to 8.1 as a guide (the link opens the guide for Windows 7...? But I use the guide for 8.1)... http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Remote-Desktop-connection-FAQ#1TC=Windows-8

    I think I can happen by steps 1.a. to 1.e. without any difficulty.

    Now the questions:

    1. in step 1.e.1. regarding 'Locations', I don't know what are the options it will present with or should I tell him to choose?

    2. to step 2.b. on the 'system', I know that she must see 'Computer name' and 'Working group', but I'm not sure what she's going to see in which area '? This does not appear on my version of Windows 7.

    3. If I can talk to him through this, she will be able to watch what I'm doing on his monitor?

    Please keep in mind that it is a perfect beginner so no instructions to its end should be as simple as possible, and I am new to 8.1 and uncertain as to what exactly she will see during the installation.

    She told me yesterday that she is so frustrated that she's almost ready to throw it all in the street and forget it. So any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    my place opperating


    To whom it may concern, I recently had problems with my computer, I went to the HP website for more help. I was talking to the engineer on the phone or the person, I was helping me. After asking a few questions we could not solve my problem however, he asked me over the phone for my permission to enter my computer from his computer that he was home and solve the problem itself. He was able to take control of my computer to fix my problem.

    Anyway, my father is an old man who only lives with me I live a couple 100 miles away from him. He had obtained a computer two years ago. I have myself worked on a computer on mine for 10 years I'm trying to help him when he called me on the phone better than I can, but it is very easily confused and has some good things down. My situation is that I can't drive because I am parapeliegic and I can't drive to his house. Therefore, it is very difficult for me to get down there to help.

    So I ask, is possible that I can get into his computer to my site so that I can fix it for him.

    Thank you for any suggestions you may have. Sincerely, Chris W.

  • Problem with the remote desktop connection.

    Hello

    I have two computers on my network.  I'm trying to use the remote desktop connection to connect to each computer.

    Computer A allows me to edit or delete the credentials when I uncheck the box always "ask for credentials.  There are two sentences under the user name field.  The second sentence says "To use saved credentials, uncheck the following."

    Computer B I cannot edit or remove the credentials.  The checkbox is labeled "allow me to save credentials".  There is no ability to modify or delete credentials.

    When A computer using I am able to connect to computer B by using RDC.

    When using computer B I am unable to connect to the computer A using DRC.

    Hello

    I had a similar problem in the past and found that the problem started when I installed Log Me In on the host computer.

    Has not solved the problem by removing only, I had to remove the Log Me In graphic card in Device Manager.

    Conclusion, the graphics card in Device Manager must have one and only good driver. Re-install the driver can also help if you have only a list.

  • Window sizes host display does not restore after a remote desktop connection

    After that my computer has been accessed via a remote desktop connection, the window size for my program do not restore their previous size.  I have monitors of landscape which are larger than most of the remote users.  When they log off my computer, my window sizes are stuck to the size of the monitor of the remote user.  Y at - it a setting or a way to get my windows to restore to their original size?

    No, there is no setting for this.  It's just the way it's always been since Remote Desktop was invented (formerly in the 1990s as Microsoft Terminal Services Client or MSTSC).

    At the heart of the problem is that the programs that run on the desktop have no way of knowing that the display size has changed, and even if they did, they also can't know what was their previous size.  It is not just stored.
