I think "Remote Desktop" is Window XP Pro only. If you want, try something like TightVNC or LogMeIn, both of which are great and easy ways (LogMeIn in particular) for remote access that are better than Remote Desktop in my opinion.

Your laptop is XP PROFESSIONAL, but the other one is XP HOME or another lower version.
Just the version of XP PROFESSIONAL can support remote desktop. So you may try 'pcAnywhere', or 'Remote Administrator'.

You can remote into an XP Home station, however XP Home doesn't have remote desktop built in.
On that first pic, you need to click advanced and then select "allow users to connect remotely to this PC"
