Hi There
i did try that its not in any of the sections terminal services are but there is no mention of remote desktop i think its installed as a pak or .msi file i just don't know the name of it any more ideas
 
Are you sure you got the full copy of Windows 2k3 ? Or did the full install of it not using any unattended install scripts during installion.

I've seen this problem on XP before but it was because we install 1 of the MSDN copies of XP by mistake and it didnt have remote desktop nor would it let us install it saying it was already there.

In the end we had to reinstall the machine with the correct copy of XP to get remote desktop to work.
