Hi Den,

Ensure that Terminal Services is started.....

Go to Start>Run and key in:
services.msc
Click on OK or hit ENTER
Scroll to locate Terminal Services and double-click on it.
In the "Startup type" field, ensure that Automatic is selected and click on
Apply. Click on the Start button under "Service status" then click on Apply
then OK.
Close the Services window.



Regards,
