TightVNC client 1.3.10 to TightVNC server 2.7.10

I installed TightVNC 2.7.10 (from http://www.tightvnc.com/download.php) on a Win 7
desktop & a TightVNC Ver 1.3.10 (from http://www.tightvnc.com/download-old.php)
on a Win XP laptop.

Reason I used older version on the Win XP is the version I got from the 1st link is in
.msi extension & can't install on Win XP so I decided to use an older version.

Both are on the same subnet with Windows Firewall turned off. The Win XP laptop
could connect to the desktop & after entering password to login, the keyboard hits
& mouse clicks/movements produced no response, seems like readonly.

I certainly did not check on the "View Only" option.

Do I need "DFMirage mirror display driver" (from http://www.demoforge.com/dfmirage.htm) ?

If anyone can point me to an exact URL to download 2.7.10 for
Win XP, I could install that on the laptop

The Ctrl-Alt-Del & Files Transfer icons on Win XP laptop's TightVNC
are greyed out too

When I copied over from Win 7 the tvnviewer & run on my Win XP,
it says it's not a valid Win32 application.

Where can I get Ver 2.7.10 for 32 bit Win XP?
