Looking for a windows app but I don't know what it's called

We have a PC (Win7) in our break room which displays various system stats/dashboards that people can stare at while they're getting their coffee or having a snack. Basically it's a carefully set up session with a couple of browser windows. Every now and then, something goes wonky - the browser crashes, some other app pops up and takes over, etc - and it needs to be set up again. It's a PITA to drag out the keyboard and mouse every time this happens.

What I'm looking for is a way to set up the screen remotely, ie via a remote desktop session. I tried googling for a solution, but I have no idea what such an app would be called or what keywords to use. Everything I came up with was for Windows Mobile stuff.
