Why not try to re-install the client ?

I believe that the OP tried that already but, since he is running SP3, it wouldn't install.

Yes, I missed that part, but in retrospect, I believe these are two different updates. The one I linked to is a stand alone package that will run on various non-SP2 platforms, and may not tangle itself with the logistics of which SP it finds in the host OS. Might still be worth a try.

Thanks BigEd for pointing me in the right direction. I uninstalled SP3 RC2 and it worked right away. I have automatic updates turned on and it told me it wanted to install SP3 RC2. A little further researched revealed that MS has recently released SP3 RC2 "refresh". Since it was coming up a security update I went ahead and installed it and am happy to say that remote desktop connection is still working. If worse came to worse I was going to reimage my HD being I am also running WHS here at home and do daily backups.

Thanks again BigEd.

You're welcome. Glad you got it going.
