Post by keioffice »

hi guys

have set up 1.0.8.x, different passwords, etc with Rudi De Vos's attachment for winvnc.exe on my server machine at home

VNC'ing to my public IP from home works and i can see my dual extended desktops

however when im at work and VNC to my home machine (server 1.0.8.x + windows 7), all i get a is black screen

ok im not sure what i did but basically i downloaded the system hook drivers and installed them then rebooted my computer

(when i installed system hook drivers -> i got NO confirmation any drivers were installed, just saw the cmd prompt accept install.bat commands, no confirmation or notification anything was successful)

now i have got

checked
- removed wallpaper
- removed aero
- show primary and secondary
- use system hookdll

unchecked
- mirror driver

i can remotely control my computer HOWEVER it is really really slow and i cant browse to my secondary extended desktop even though i have replaced -> winvnc_10832_leftdisplay.zip as per this topic

[topic=16752][/topic]

ok i just had another browse through the subforum and went for "ultra" as my connection setting

and i can remotely control the computer a little faster however it is still barely usable and is SLOW though switch monitor/full button works

can someone explain? i was previously using 8bit connection setting as it thought it would be alot faster

Why did you UNcheck the mirror driver if you installed it? Have you tried checking it?
