On your Windows computer you need to check two things:
Get the IP :
1. Click on Start, then Run
2. type CMD then click on OK
3. type: ipconfig
4. Make a note of the IP address for the section: IP Address
Confirm that Windows Remote Desktop is enabled:
1. Check that you have Windows XP Pro or Media Center Edition (not Home)
2. Click on Start, then Run
3. Type: winver, then click on OK
4. The banner window that appear should state the version of Windows
5. Right click on My Computer and select Properties
6. Click on the Remote Tab and make sure that in the Remote Desktop section, "Allow users to connect remotely to this computer" is checked
7. The default user allowed to connect is Administrator, if you need to add other users, click on "Select Remote Users" and add the required user in there.
The IP address you identified in the first step is entered into the Address box on your Mac in the Remote Desktop Client.
