Running remote desktop from a Win7 machine to a win xp pro.

Win 7 screen res 1900x1080, but apperars with black bars down side, obviosly sending at lower res.

Anyway to get this higher res/full screen?

Should work fine by default, check the settings to be sure.

I access the machine remotely via a weblink, is that control panel on the host machine?

Yes that control panel is on the host PC. You click Options on the RDP Client.
