Ok, I've networked my wireless laptop with my wired desktop. I can connect to the desktop using XP Remote Desktop Connection on my laptop BUT:

Say I click on a music file on my desktop -- it plays through my laptop. What I want it it to do is play through my desktop. In essence, I don't just want access to the music files, I want to control my desktop from my laptop which RDC doesn't seem to be giving me...

You follow me? Any help would be appreciated!! :)

RightHere over at FW helped me out:

"When you bring up the RDC client, click on options, then local resources."
