I am currently having an issue were the remote host PC that I am connecting to using viewer is Blanking out the host computers screen. The Host computer doesn't have the Monitor driver installed and the viewing computer doesn't have the Blank the Host's Screen setting checked in the additional properties. Any ideas to solve this issue would be nice.
