There is a huge bug with the 55 series, no terminal services or remote desktop works in XP/2003 anymore after install. First time I am seeing such poor behaviour from a video driver interacting with the OS. Good job nVidia, how the f... are you testing the things? >> Stay informed about: nVidia ForceWare 56.56 Leaked Beta Drivers

The machine into which you connect is the one that if it has the 55 series will behave as described, not the pc from which you are connecting.

Does yor US server into which you connect has an Nvidia card with 55 series driver? I am not talking about the computer who initiate the connection... The bug manifests on the host of the session.

Do you understand what "beta" means in this business ? Incomplete, test versions, sometimes with special probe code. Exception: A Beta "release candidate" (RC) is a complete beta version ready for QC. Of course, unless you receive documentation with the stolen driver, you will have no idea which type of beta release it is. The numbers are meaningless to anybody other than those with access to the documentation. Please engage brain before mouth.
