Is it XP Pro or Home?

If Pro, then:
Run | sysdm.cpl | Remote
check "Allow users to connect remotely to this computer"
 
Have you tried starting the Terminal Services service? See the
troubleshooting section on this page for help with that...

I suggest you configure it for Automatic then start the service.

It is Pro and it is the first thing I tried.
 
You might try...


1. Re-registering Remote Desktop using the command line that
follows...Reboot the PC after doing this...

regsvr32 remotepg.dll


2. Otherwise try a repair install of Windows XP... Note the warnings on the
page and backup important data just to be safe...
