459353 2006-05-31 06:52:00 I'm wondering how to setup Remote Desktop on my mum's xp home computer.. if possible? If I can't, well then I just have to fall back on Radmin.

Ok, on the way home I stopped past Stationary Warehouse to get a few things and I was looking at the software they had like windows xp.
I have a dodgy XP Pro version on my comp at the mo, and I want to get a genuine version.. The box I saw read upgrade from home, 98 etc etc.. for $159. Would this work for a totally fresh install?

Thanks ;)

Remote desktop - use VNC or similar.
