Blayne, dude. You have FIVE threads on the first page. Check the Microsoft help page. You don't need to post this here.

Does the laptop have Vista? If not, I don't think it's possible.

You need the latest version of the Remote Desktop app (on your school machine); you need to enable Remote Desktop on your Vista machine; you need to have the appropriate ports open on your firewall (and know your home IP); and you need to have an administrative account on your home machine.
If your school is even REMOTELY competent, by the way, they will have that traffic disabled.
