Hi guys.

I have a little problem with a PC in my office.

Remote desktop always used to work fine on this PC, but now it has a problem.

When you try to connect to this PC using Remote desktop from any other PC, the connection starts running and it seems like it is going to connect, but then it just suddenly dies and the whole remote desktop application closes.

The Remote Desktop is enabled on that PC and the Firewall is turned off.

Do you have an active and updated virus scanner running on that PC?

Might be a nasty gogga interfering somewhere where it shouldn't.

Is the remote one running headless?? Conenct a screen and have a look there to see if it's anything obvious.

Last similar error I had, my router bombed out. When I rebooted it, it had lost its settings. Somehow the RD story got lost along with them- had to reconfig both machines.
