Dang it anyway the new i7 860 arrived in time but in my haste to go to work I forgot to shut off power saving features in Win7 so I've lost 24 hrs work

So I've setup my old E7400 in my den to help makeup some points. But have no monitor or keyboard. Is there anyway that I can login to the remote machine(winxp32) from my primary Win7 machine? I've seen mention of BOINCview, but can't get it to work and others have mentioned not to use it. All I want to do is check the machine to make sure it working properly.

Thanks

John
