Hello,
I want to see the files on my old desktop (pentium III) by using my laptop (I7) as the screen. Is this possible and if so how. Both are Dell products.

Thank you in advance

If you use remote connection, just use RDP to remote into the desktop, as long as the old system is on the network and supports RDP.

There is something that you didn't make clear. Do you want to run the operating system on your laptop and see files on the desktop, or do you want to use the laptop's keyboard and screen to run things on your desktop - to remote-control the desktop.

The answers are different; the first case is easier.
