I am trying to setup some Vista Home Basic machines with the NComputing X550 Terminal Devices so I can have multiple users accessing the computer at the same time from separate monitors using terminal services. Only Problem is that MS in its infinite wisdom decided that NOBODY IN THE WORLD would ever need this feature in the Home Basic Version, so there is no Group Policy option. I need to know if there is a work around or possibly any type of 3rd party software that will allow me to setup group policies or' to use terminal services. Thanks in advance. COY

If there is one out there that will be a new one on me. If you think that is bad, wait till the latest versions on Windows 7 hit the market...... But in your case, I think that you will need to upgrade the OS in order to get what you want.

How about Downgrading instead!! HP really Scrumfed me on this one!! The ad was supposed to be "Year End Close Out" Machines pre-downgraded to XP, now they won't even ship the XP to down grade with!! I wonder whose great mind came up with this IDEA? Its not like anybody would ever use omre than 1 user on a home computer and might want to set up policy restrictions on the other users, now is it???? Typical MS crap!! Shoot a mosquito with an Atomic Bomb!!
