Only boots when monitor is attached!

wwroller
Hi, everyone. . . 3 computers: Laptop, box A, and box B. I want to control box A and box B from my laptop via VNC. I have no keyboard or monitor plugged into box A or box B only power and ethernet. This works just fine on box B, but box A only boots if a monitor is attached to it.

Making movies on my PC

Malaris
I want to use Windows Movie Maker (suggest any better software by all means) to make machinima movies for someone I know. Can I record a full screen program on my PC with WMM? If not, what kind of cables do I need to attach my PC to my TV or games consoles?.
