Linking laptop monitors

Ok. I have recently acquired a server, but do not possess a monitor for it. I
currently lack the funds to purchase one. I do however have a laptop
computer. Is there any way that I can get the laptop to function as the
monitor for the server? I possess a monitor link cable, and both machines run
Windows Vista. However, my laptop runs Vista Home Premium, while the server
runs Vista Home Basic. So the Remote Desktop option doesn't work. So is there
anything I can do?

UltraVNC or one of the other VNC options would work.
