Using remote desktop to solve specific problem
I am wanting to use windows 7's remote desktop to solve a very specific problem and I am wondering if this forum can enlighten me on whether or not it will actually work. Here is my situation.
I currently have a super ultra mega desktop deluxe ex plus alpha that I purchased from the year 2099 using my Delorian. I also have a crummy netbook that is so crummy it doesn't even support a 1024 x 768 resolution by default (max is 1024 x 600). Now herein lies the problem. I absolutely need this netbook to run a certain program which just won't even turn on unless I have a 1024 x 768 resolution. Now I've looked into forcing this resolution onto my netbook with windows 7 and it looks like the solutions are either get an external monitor (which doesn't help me at all), or to install windows xp instead, since windows xp drivers support panning resolutions and windows 7 ones don't. My desktop from the future, however, is perfectly capable of running a resolution of 16 million by 9 million and has no problem running the program.
My question, is, however, that if I'm using windows 7 remote desktop, since I am technically running the program on my desktop from the future, can I use remote desktop to bypass this absurd resolution requirement that is preventing me from running this program on my netbook?
