Remote Desktop Connection

I have intermittent ability to connect to an old computer using Remote Desktop Connection.  The computer is on the same workgroup and can get to the internet.  The monitor died and I have a new computer, so I would like to use remote desktop connection to use the computer.  It works sometimes and I can connect, but then I try again later and it doesn't work.

I can ping using the ip address (which I find using ipconfig on remote computer), but I can't using the computer name.

The source computer is vista, the target computer is xp pro sp3.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Can they be placed next to each other so that you can use a 2 port KVM ?
