I reloaded my mom's Win98 box and it now works well with PHW now. I realized shortly after posting above that it would do no good to load the server (win98 box) with Directx9.0c since PHW doesn't even look at that.

I have Directx9.0c on my xpsp2 box (viewer) and I still get a black viewer from my mom's Win 98 box (server). I know PHW works on my bro's Windows 2000 box in that same town as where my mom lives. In 2 days I am traveling 300 miles and will work on my mom's box including putting directx9.0c on it ...

Okay I will install DirectX9.0c on the Win98 box and try that.

I know how to create a custom server executable but I am not certain how to disable Directx in the server viewer executable? Please advise. By the way I am running xpsp2 on my pc.

I get a direct connection to my mom's win 98 pc and she can see my mouse move but in my viewer, the GUI for her screen is black. Once out of about 10 connections, I could view her screen in my GUI but my mouse/keyboard input did not work at that time. What can I try next?

Yes that does work. However not much is gained since the viewer has to be started before the server, hence, the server operator still has to manually start up the server. The only step not needed is to click on the "Connect" button. What would really be nice is if the server could run all the time ...

Hi.....Great Site....PHW is nice!

I have tried all the above to no avail. Has anyone figured out how to do this?
