Is it possible to set up an XP Home computer to operate in another room with
no keyboard or display? Mostly I just want it to sit and crunch numbers,
but occasionally I'd need to use a different computer's keyboard and display
to check up on it, tweak the process, etc.
If I read the XP help files properly, it would seem that the cruncher
computer must have keyboard and display to initially make the remote control
connection. I'd like to just be able to switch on the cruncher computer,
and then automatically have control of it from another computer when it
boots.
Can XP be persuaded to do this, or is some third party software required?
Thanks.
