More info?)
Sorry for the personal chatter while waiting for you to reply....I thought Gary had
already made it pretty clear.
You can use Remote Desktop to CONNECT a computer running any version of Windows TO a
Windows XP Professional computer, if you install the Remote Desktop Connection
Software on the computer with the *any* version of Windows.
The computer being connected TO using Remote Desktop (in other words, the computer
allowing access to itself FROM another computer) MUST be running XP Pro.
Remote Assistance is another separate capability, which only works between Windows
XP computers....either Home or Pro.
You may be able to use a third-party app if you install it on both
computers....something like PCAnywhere.
