As soon as I connnect to the remote desktop, it immediately logs off. I
have all the 'User Rights Assignments' configured, and I have RD turned on.
I also have my user name in the Remote Desktop Users group. What is
happening.
Thanks,
Nick

Also, if I am logged in to the remote computer, I can connect remotely. If I
am not logged in, I get the problem described below.

On the remote PC that you are trying to connect to by Remote Desktop, you
need to update the drivers for your video card.

Thanks for the reply. I have an abit GF4 Ti4200 video card. I got the latest
drivers from their web site - issued 3/1/04, version 56.56, but I still have
the same problem. My system has been recently reinstalled. Remote Desktop
worked before the reinstall. The weird thing is that it works if the user
logs onto the host and then does a 'switch user'.
