Can't Remote In, Black Screen When Logging On
If people having trouble remoting in and then you go to their local desktop and it's just a black screen, you might have a display driver issue.
Open up the local group policy editor > local computer policy > computer configuration > administrative templates > Windows components > remote desktop services > remote desktop session host > remote session environment > and disable the "use WDDM graphics display driver for remote desktop connections" setting.
