I've been told two things in the last couple of days and need some clarity!
I've been trying to get a new HP Pavilion Laptop with Vista Home premium to "Remote Desktop" a desktop PC with XP Pro SP2.
After all kinds of migraines, I call the HP Laptop tech support and they say that . . .
Fact or Fiction 1) "The Laptop with Vista home premium won't or cant
~Remote Desktop~ with the Desktop XP!"
Upon querying a few people I'm then told . . .
Fact or Fiction 2) "Vista Home premium wont ~Remote Desktop~ with XP
Pro but Vista Ultimate will, only with the computer name
and not with an IP!"
Hmmmm . . .
So can anyone shed some light here? Which of the above two F or F's is true or false ? Both None One?
thanks chris
