Thanks for advices, but nothing helped.
A realised this:
- it realy hapened because of some shared "virtual" display driver
- if I run VNC after reboot, everything work fine
- if I run RDT before VNC, it is not possible run VNC (only black
initialization widow appear)
- if I run RDT at small resolution, which is actual remote PC resolution
(640x480x8), then I'm able to run VNC simultaneously (realy two windows
side by side)
- if I stop RDT, than also VNC stop reactions (hangs?), so I have to
close viewer
- when I stop RDT and try to run VNC individualy, it create only window
in 640x480, but it is black
- when I ran RDT in big full screen resolution, then VNC tried to create
big window, but only black
- another VNC-like utility RemoteAdministraor 2.1 act in the similar way
(none window opened after RDT was running)
- both VNC and RAdmin works fine, if it is used prior RDT
- the same black windows is in
I thing, that RDT somehow "damage" video driver, which both applications
need.
I''l try to insert better gr. accelerator (not only 512kB).
Any idea how to solve this?
Does exist some person, who is runnig both RDT and VNC simultaneously at
XP computers?
