I've got a HP Microserver which is located up in the loft. It has VNC server installed for remote access, which is fine for most things, however you can't change Kaspersky. This means I have to disconnect it and bring it down to plug in a monitor and keyboard. Is there a way of directly connecting a laptop or iPad to the Microserver to act as a monitor and keyboard?

Thanks for the suggestions. I've tried the Chrome remote desktop and it is locked out by Kaspersky the same as VNC. I've looked for the card for the Gen 7 unit and it doesn't appear to be available.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm using KIS2016 at the moment and yes it does prove a problem when inputting the license number each year, but also general stuff like trying to add a programme to the trusted list.

I'll give TeamViewer a try, although from a quick Google it look as though it might be a bit hit and miss with Kaspersky.

If TeamViewer doesn't work then it may be time for an upgrade. The sites that were listing the remote card for the Gen 7 showed it costing around 50% of the cost of the Gen 8 (with cash back), so upgraded hardware and it guaranteed to work may be the way to go.
