Magic Jack on WHS

You can run Magic Jack on WHS


If you are using Remote Desktop Connection on a Vista Service Pack 1 Computer edit the shortcut to add /admin to the shortcut, so it looks like this,

%systemroot%\system32\mstsc.exe /admin

 

If you are using XP or a non Vista Service Pack 1 OS edit it to look like this,

%systemroot%\system32\mstsc.exe /console

 

on the first screen that displays click on Options >>

Click on the "Local Resources" (tab)

Under the "Remote computer sound" set it to "Leave at remote computer"

Click Connect

Log onto your WHS.

Click on | Start (menu) | Control Panel | Sound and Audio Devices |

 

You should now be able to select a local audio device. Or you may need to uninstall and reinstall your audio device.

 

If this helps please mark this as the solution.

Thanks

 

Additional information if you are using a MediaSmart Server, you'll need to go to http://java.com/en/ and install the free Java update, once it is installed you can then access http://www.magicjack.com/site/magicfix.html to test your system.
