Compression within Remote Tools always showing as low

We've just installed SMS2.0 SP1 to a vanilla site and set the remote tools to high compression. The site is populated with PIII/400 256MB machines yet at the client end it shows [on the majority] low compression is being used. The performance of remote control appears worse than our offices running v1.2 and I've been advised the compression settings could be an issue.<br>

Anyone seen this before?
 
make sure the client computers are setup to use the administrator's settings. go to the systems management applet in control panels and check to see if the 'use admin's settings' is checked. hope this helps.
 
What is the screen resolution on the client computers? The CPU cycles could be getting bombarded. The higher the client's screen resolution, the more CPU SMS 2.0's remote control uses. If acceleration is loaded and compression is set to high, the CPU utilization will stay around the 90%-100% range. If you set the compression to low, the CPU usage will drop to the 50%-70% range.<br>

Having the same problem as KenD (no compression)
Trying to follow dragonpath's advice I had a look for the &quot;use admin's settings&quot; but I can't find it in any applet.
Any ideas?
