XP Host Restarts when RDC client connects

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely (More info?)

I started getting a problem on my Host computer when I try to connect to it
using Remote Desktop. Every time I connect to my Host pc (XP Pro No-SP) the
operating system restarts on the host. I was connecting fine last week before
I installed some windows security updates...now this odd behavior. My client
pc is XP Pro SP2.
Where do I start diagnosing the problem (and maybe fixing it) ? Any help
would be appreciated.
Is it possible that these security updates chnged the registry in a way that
RDC is no longer possible?

Thanks,
Miguel

I've seen this, too and I'm looking into it.

1. Check the event logs on the host PC
2. The host PC should be running SP1 at a minimum - SP2 should also be
attempted

Any chance you updated the video driver?
