Guest Falcubar Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Hi Guys, I'm not even sure if this is possible with Win XP. When i remote into my home PC, who ever is logged in gets kicked off/logged out. Is there anyway for me to set it up so that when i log it they can see my every move? Like VNC.... if anyone knows what that is? Hope this makes sense. Many Thanks Steve

Another option is to install TeamViewer on both systems. http://www.teamviewer.com/index.aspx Good luck Nepatsfan
Guest Falcubar Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Re: Remote Desktop Question... Thanks for that, only being one issue. I can't install any 3rd party programs on this PC, Even web based applications such as Logmein.com wont work. I need to use only windows based options i have available. Is there anyway to use Remote Assistance without Messenger etc? A way to log in like RDP session?

Guest Nepatsfan Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Re: Remote Desktop Question... Remote Assistance will require someone seated at the remote computer to complete the connection. You can't just log in like you do with Remote Desktop. There is an unsupported hack available on the net that could help in your situation. Do a Google search for concurrent remote desktop sessions. Since this isn't something I'd recommend, you're on your own with this. Keep in mind that you'd be replacing files on your home computer with versions that have been modified.
