Windows 98 to 2003 terminal server problem

I have just installed a 2003 Terminal Server and all clients connect except
the 4 Windows 98 machines. I have reinstalled 98 onto one just in case this
was a problem but it hasn't helped.

The client is configured using RDP client 5.1 (or 5.2 tried both) and as
soon as the connection begins and the desktop pops up, the client locks and
the machine needs to be reset.

This does not occur when connecting to 2000 Terminal servers. This alos
occurs at multiple sites, I discovered after testing. This happens whether
the connection is done via the local network, or across the web.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,

Scott.
 
The problem is resolved. It turns out the 7 year old drivers for the video
card were fine when runnin the RDP session in a window but locked the machine
when runnin fullscreen.

A later set of drivers from 2000 fixed the problem.
