    Controling music from another computer.

    I have two xp sp2 computers connected through a wireless network in one room. One computer has terrible speakers, so I want to know if there is a way to play my music on this computer on the other computer. Is there a way that I can freely stream music to the second computer and control the music files on the second computer?

    If the two PCs are networked, surely you can see the music on Computer A from Computer B when you look in Windows Explorer / My Network Places. Can you not run the files in Media Player in the same way as if they were saved locally on Computer B?

    Failing that, I don't know if maybe there's a clever setting in Windows XP Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) that allows you to play sounds through the sound card and speakers on Computer B when you're using RDC to view / play files on Computer A. Might be worth a look.
