Can connect to both. I do have other issues with the 175.16 divers, but RDP isn't one of them. Do you use Vista's firewall? I ask because I tried earlier tonight to connect to my brother-in-law's machine via RDP, and though I didn't get any error code it did hang at the login screen and then disconnected. I phoned him and told him to disable the firewall and restart his PC, I was then able to connect successfully. He is running 175.16 drivers on his 8800GT.

My system is XP SP2 with Firewall off for months... there is an error in the eventlog about the rdp dll (i forget exactly)
