    Remote Desktop and Client backup were both operational on NancyXP (running Windows XP Prof) before installing a wireless card. Now, with wireless active, while folders and applications on NancyXP can be remotely accessed from other PC's, they cannot connect via Remote Desktop. The other systems include a desktop and laptop PC with wireless. Have checked Wireless Connection properties and they are the same except for the wireless protocol. Remote desktop is not as critical as client backup of NancyXP.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Probably a firewall on the PC.

    Thanks Scott. That did it. New Anti-virus program turned the firewall on.

    Sorry I didn't note your reply sooner. I am supposed to get an email whenever a reply has been made to my query. Didn't get one this time. ??
