Remote Desktop Graphics Quality

I have about 50 old 16 bit Elementary games for my little brother to play. The problem is that all of my computers have Windows 7 X64. So I used Virtualbox, and made an installation of Windows XP Pro 32 bit. I ripped all of the cd's and made ISO's of them, and I use Daemon Tools Lite to mount them. This works fine, but when he is playing the games, The refresh rate is so bad that they are unplayable. I have tried every remote tool I know of, and cannot find a program that refreshes the image often enough to play.

So far I have tried:
Windows Remote Desktop
Real VNC
Virtualbox Video redirection


I do not want to use something as Logmein, or Teamviewer because the traffic has to go out to the internet. I have a Gigabit LAN.

I would prefer to use remote desktop because it automatically adjusts the screen resolution.

I just cannot find a way in any program to adjust the refresh rate.


Thank You

I have no idea if LogMeIn would solve your problem, but just to be clear, the internet only serves as a means for client and server to locate each other. Once located, if it’s determined that both are using the same local network, they establish a *local* network connection and do NOT use the Internet for communications. I believe TeamViewer works similarly (or worst case, I know TeamViewer allows you specify local IP addresses for local connections).

Splashtop is the best performance I have seen for remote desktop game play.
