@boostry123 You might have to go into Computer Management, and under the Remote Desktop Users group, add your account to the list.

I have a question. Can I connect Windows 7 (My Netbook) to My Computer (Running Windows xp)?

[PCAddictsLive]

@jojorockshard0g8 Of course - should work no problem

i have a question, i connected from a windows 7 64-bit laptop to a windows xp 32-bit pc (the windows xp pc doesn't have any high-end specs), all goes well, but the playback is slow like hell. is it because of the system specs on my windows xp pc or is it something else?

[PCAddictsLive]

@HARDCOREnl1337 Hmm, well, with RDP, it's normally a little slow (you can't game etc... ) but if it's too slow, maybe you have a slow network connection, and you can maybe adjust your RDP config... like the amount of colors, disable the audio, etc...

@PCAddictsLive you say it couldn't really support gaming but would it be able to do video (even at a low resolution maybe)? and when i say do video i mean at least 20-25fps

[VoLtrex31]

The same thing what i wanted to do..

how is fast  the connection?

[PCAddictsLive]

@VoLtrex31 Connection is fine. Works like a champ really.... I think I'm getting another Netbook for Christmas - can't wait (since I took this one back to buy my dual 22" wide screens).

[VoLtrex31]

you have any idea which connection is the best for remote connections? cause i thought of usb but there is internet option too..

btw which net book you will buy?

p.s. thank you for your reply..

[PCAddictsLive]

@VoLtrex31 Network would typically what you want to use. If you don't have a hub or switch, you can use a cross-over cable. I took back all my netbooks to the store, and currently don't have any.

[Crucible1001]

Thanks for the video. I just bought the same exact netbook. Will be here tomorrow. I also wanted to use it with remote desktop.

[PCAddictsLive]

Sweet! I miss mine!

[UnhealthyThoughts]

Awesome man just answered my main question about the Acer!!

[PCAddictsLive]

Glad I could help. This was one of my main concerns for Netbooks, since I administer a big network with lots of servers.

linux distro ftw!

Guess I could have turned the lights on huh? DOH!
