Hello,
I have an old PC that I might migrate the motherboard, CPU etc into from my current machine as I decide upon components for my next build.
What I was thinking about was how viable a "headless" system might be and whether Windows 7 would even allow a PC without attached monitor and keyboard etc to boot.
Ideally I am looking to have my old PC running in some corner without monitor etc and have my current system have full access via a remote desktop of some sort such that I can use the old machine as if I were accessing it the usual way.
I am not familiar with Windows 7 so there may already be a suitable solution but any guidance as to if and how to achieve what I'm looking to do would be much appreciated.
