Yep, they all have the same network cards. We haven't tried that. I will
swap mine out for a 3Com or something high-end and see what I get when
VNCing in. I was led to believe it was a video driver issue.
They all have SP1 installed, yes.
Also, I have tried the Java viewer (most people here use the Java viewer
actually). It dithers down to 8-bit automatically so you can usually work a
bit longer, but it will eventually lock up and BSOD like the standalone
viewer. Yesterday I BSOD'd about 4 times in a row because of this one
computer I just needed to do a LITTLE work on. I ended up walking to
another computer which had NT4, transferring the call, and finishing it
there :)
