Guest PaulG Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Re: Remote Desktop to Win2k3 SBS freezes/pauses when moving mouse Sorry for the delay. I have tested all the possibilities, it appears this only happens when connecting to this server via a Windows Vista desktop. If I connect to the server via a Windows XP Virtual Machine (VMware) it runs fine. I am connected to 3 other SBS 2003 servers and do not have this issue, it appears to be Windows Vista to this one particular Windows 2003 SBS server. Just to clarify: If I open the remote desktop System Manager opens full screen, if I click the minimize button with the mouse, the button is highlighted but nothing happens, after about 6 seconds the windows minimizes. If I then double click on the Firefox icon on the desktop nothing happens for about 6 seconds then the Firefox windows appears. If, during this "constant" 6 second pause, I hit any key on the keyboard the mouse action is carried out instantly as if I am doing a screen refresh. Thanks, PaulG.

From what I have seen, Vista and RDP has issues with Active X / IE7, although not persistent. -- :-)
