Consider the following scenario:

• On a Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1)-based computer, you run the “Connect to a Network Projector” utility (Netproj.exe) to search for projectors on the network.
• There are many projectors on the network.

In this scenario, some network projectors may not be found during the search.

Note: This problem occurs even if the projectors and the computer reside on the same network.

Consider the following scenario:

• On a Windows Vista-based computer, you join a meeting by using Windows Meeting Space.
• In Windows Meeting Space, you click Options in the upper-right corner, and then you click Connect to a projector.

In this scenario, you cannot connect to the projector. Additionally, you receive the following error message:

The Network Projector could not be added to the meeting.
The projector does not support the display resolution you are currently using. In order to add the projector to the session stop the shared session, decrease your desktop resolution and then try again.

However, when you connect to the same projector by clicking Connect to a Network Projector, the connection succeeds.

Notes

• This problem occurs if the screen resolution of the computer is higher than the screen resolution that the network projector supports.
• This problem occurs even after you have installed hotfix 938906.

Consider the following scenario:
