Remote Desktop Help in Windows 7

[Ankur]

Please help me how to setup remote desktop for Windows7 Home Premium, I tried it today but my teacher told me to use 7 Ultimate, can anyone tell me whether it is possible to setup remote desktop control in Home Premium? or do I have to do dual boot now for the Setup?

Type remote desktop in the start menu search bar. You will see an entry for setting up Remote Desktop.

Win7 Home Prem. does not have the "server" version of remote desktop. You can connect to other PC's with it, but you cannot connect TO the Win7 Home Prem. machine.

Yea that is what, I am able to connect other PC's from my PC but cannot do it from other PC to my PC.
Can 7 Ultimate do it?
Win7 Home Premuim and Win7 Ultimate dual boot possible?

Don't waste money on Ultimate. Pro will do what you need just fine.

Okay. . so I saw Pro is 200 $ and Ultimate is 220$, the only difference I saw between them is Bitlocker? Is it useful?
