Share my screen across my network?

I want to have a Desktop with my films playing. I have a Laptop downstairs linked to my TV. How can i sned the video files though my network, and into the laptop.

NOTE that my laptop only has a 10GB harddrive, and 5.7 is used! My netowrk is fully 1Gbit, and wired. So i only need software to transmit the data.

All my systems are running XP Home

Answer:
Trying to remotely view the desktop screen, while on the laptop is the wrong approach. You should share the drive/directory on the desktop machine, then go to the laptop, launch a player - like VLC, and play the files that way. You'll find the image quality 10000% better.

VLC, VNC, Synergy...

I'd go with VLC, personally. (It stands for Video Lan Client.)
