Remote Desktop

Hi, i used to use my main computer (in sig, Vista HP x64) to remote control my laptop (windows xp pro) so i could turn on and off downloads and play music through it. Now i have installed vista 64 on the laptop and i cant seem to connect to the laptop? Is there anything i could be missing out? Settings, software, drivers etc? Any help be appreciated as dont really want to re install xp again, and quite like the function of remote desktop.
