3 are Win 7 Ultimate and the 4th is Home Premium. I have almost decided that I need to format C and reinstall because something may be messed up. All the “normal” boxes are checked, but it just won’t even get close. I don’t understand why I can go from desktop to laptop no problemo, but not the other way. I thought I may have found some wrong entries in my firewall, but that didn’t work either. I’ve even stopped my firewall and it was broke, so I’m figuring that’s not the main problem.( may have a problem later but not if it’s not even running.) I will most likely go with 3rd party software if something doesn’t happen soon. It seems it wouldn’t work either if some port wasn’t open.

As another thing to try before you give up: try to open Services (run services.msc) and check that "Remote Desktop Services" are running, then use "netstat -a -n" to verify that the port is listening. On my other box the service start was set to "Manual" and not running because I don't need it. (My box runs "Home Premium", and RDP is only used in Remote Assistance mode.)
