[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 981106, member: 325666"] Ok .. I'm currently accessing the forum on my new half built upgrade PC .. Now I want to try something I've never used before.. Desktop Sharing .. It will be over local lan only ...and there are 2 reasons for this .. a) I want easy access whilst I build the new pc ...to the old pcs desktop etc.. This will help and speed the process ...as there is much to do. b) once complete I'd like to retain functionality to the old main pc via remote desktop to be used as a workhorse for usenet access etc . The PC would then no longer have a monitor mouse or keyboard attached ..the only access being via a second PC desktop sharing. Hope this makes sense.. ?? Both OS will be Win7 ..the old being 32 bit ...the new being 64bit .. But as said already I have never tried/used this before so I'm requesting some help from those who have. I know windows has such features built in but appear a bit limited ...requiring the pc being accessed to actually grant that access ? As said the old pc will still be connected to the network but placed in a remote location in my house with no keyboard or monitor .. So .. what is the best or preferred method of doing this ? ..preferably free..and easily set up. Advice or suggestions welcomed. [/QUOTE]
