Remote Desktop Problems...

When I first attempted to connect I was presented with the login screen, but after entering my username and password all I got was a black screen before eventually encountering the attached error.
Subsequent attempts to connect timeout and take me straight to the error.
Now normally, I'd assume there was a problem with my machine at home however Chris is having the same problem too. We both installed a Windows Update last and I'm wondering if that's anything to do with it? The only other thing I can attribute it to is a problem here on our internal network.
Anyone else having problems?

I suppose the group policy preferences might have an effect on you. I can give it a try this afternoon if you still need me to, but I need RD this morning, so don't want to try and brake it at the moment!

What I do is then log in as Admin, and force my normal account to log off. I then reconnect as my normal user.

Quote from: okrzynska Don't know if you can but try logging in as Administrator instead. I've had similar errors before and subsequent attempts to reconnect are aborted because the first session is still active... though not properly.
What I do is then log in as Admin, and force my normal account to log off. I then reconnect as my normal user.
I don't get as far as the login screen after the first failed attempt. Tried pre-populating the computer name and Admin username in the RDP client but that hasn't made a difference.
Quote from: samuria Are you running the basic rdp that came with xp? If you are that could be the problem there a lot of issues with it especially connecting with Vista there is an updated client that solves it

The remote computer is running XP PRO SP3 and I'm trying to connect from my work lappy that's running Vista Business. Chris is running XP SP3 both at work and home.
