Unable to connect to the server

Okay i realize that yall are probably so sick of hearing about this but I need some help.
I can't get this to work at all. Ive tried using the auto discovery option, also tried using the RDP option. I have a professional XP SP 3, I have allowed for remote access, I am an administrator so I know thats not the problem. I have tried running the auto discovery and when that happens, I get kicked off the physical laptop, but then the Droid asks me to login, and I do, but there is just a black screen. So then I tried the RDP way and set up a static IP address on my D-Link router, just like it says. I used the exact ports that it suggests, 3389 I believe. Well obviously it isn't working. Please help me, because I have tried many different remote access programs, including remote desktop, and this one is much cheaper and more user friendly so id much rather use it. thanks.
