I don't see anything wrong in ANY of your settings. I really don't know what's wrong. Let's go through everything again just in case:

-Forward the correct TightVNC ports (5500,5800 and 5900) to 192.168.1.3
-Download and install the TightVNC server on your server computer.
-Download and install the TightVNC viewer on your other computer.
-On your server computer, run the TightVNC server and leave it on.
-Right-click on the TightVNC server icon in your taskbar and click on Properties.
-On the "Server" tab, make sure that "Accept socket connections" is checked and that "Display: 0" is the one that's checked instead of "Auto" or "Ports".
-On the "Display" tab, make sure "Full desktop" is checked.
-On the "Administration" tab, make sure "Disable empty passwords" is checked and then go back to your "Server" tab and set up a password for your server.
-On the other computer, then run the TightVNC viewer and enter 192.168.1.3 (if that doesn't work, try your real IP) as the VNC Server and press enter.
-It should then ask your for your password. Enter it and you should be good to go.

Everything should be working. Just make sure you did those steps right.

Good luck,

Glad to know it worked. Now yes, there is a way to make the TightVNC server turn on whenever your computer does. Just copy the shortcut to the TightVNC server and paste it inside the folder called "Startup" inside of your "All Programs" folder (the one that shows up when you click on "Start").

Now, is there anything else I can help you with?

No problem, just glad I could help. If there's anything else you need, feel free to post here. Or if this thread gets closed sometime soon, just make a new one or PM me personally.

Have a good night,
