Remote Desktop on XP Home SP1
I am trying to get Remote Desktop installed (from link below) installed on a
Dell desktop computer running a Dell OEM version of XP Home Edition SP1, but keep getting an error stating that I cannot install this program because I already have a pre-installed system on board. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en Any ideas? |

The remote desktop client software - to connect to Windows Xp Professional or Windows 2000/2003 and up servers is already included in Windows XP Home Edition.

You don't need the program at that link because you already have it. That's
only for people with Windows 2000 or older that need it. It's already in every version of XP. To get to it, run the mstsc.exe from the Run... box, or go to: Start Programs Accessories Communications Remote Desktop Connection. - skeene "Steven Ruth" wrote: I am trying to get Remote Desktop installed (from link below) installed on a Dell desktop computer running a Dell OEM version of XP Home Edition SP1, but keep getting an error stating that I cannot install this program because I already have a pre-installed system on board. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en Any ideas? |
