Do you use Vista's UAC?

Same here. I leave it on, because it really does increase security. It doesn't get in the way much.

Vista or XP

I've recently switched over to 100% Vista, and will definitely not be going back. There is one service pack, and the performance difference in games is negligible. Vista is quality. Run with it. It's not the new ME.

Weird Remote Desktop problem

Another user is reporting the same problem with the newest nVidia drivers, so I'm pretty convinced they're the source of the problem.

Weird Remote Desktop problem

I made it once on an XP SP2 machine manually using the instructions on the Windows Super Site. Then I made another using nLite on an XP SP3 machine. Both had the exact same issue.

Weird Remote Desktop problem

Cause just what sort of problem? An incompatibility with a new version of an nVidia driver? I've since uninstalled 169.21 and gone back to 175.16, and 175.16 still breaks RDP. Dropping back to 169.21 fixes it every time.

After another Windows reinstall, it turned out to be the new 175.16 nVidia drivers for my 8800GT. I had to go back to the 169 drivers. Which kinda sucks, but I guess they work.

Yes, brand new driver. I just made a brand new Windows CD with SP3 slipstreamed in using NLite just to make sure. The system still doesn't recognize it as a Windows disk when I run SFC. It asks for the disc even if it's in the drive.

Weird Remote Desktop problem

Actually I just noticed this in the event log: Application popup: : \SystemRoot\System32\RDPDD.dll failed to load I ran an SFC, and SFC will not recognize my XP CD. It's an extract of an XP SP1 Corporate CD that I slipstreamed SP3 into. I guess I borked it somehow?

It is behind a router. The router is configured to forward the port. It worked fine immediately prior to formatting the hard drive. Also, as stated, the clients behave precisely the same when trying to connect via the LAN as they do remotely.

Weird Remote Desktop problem

Over the weekend, I installed a fresh copy of XP with SP3 slipstreamed onto the disc. I installed my drivers and programs, disabled System Restore, disabled some services (System Restore, Wireless Zero Config, Computer Browser, Security Center, Bonjour), usual stuff. Firewall is disabled, no...
