Re: Problem connecting Xbox 360 to Media Center PC

I checked the event viewer and each log, Application, Security, System and
Media Center.

Could it be a problem with Remote Desktop? I've noticed when I try to use a
remote connection to the same computer. No one can be using that computer,
whether I use my userid or Administrator.

Thank you for the continued help!

I've done a fresh install a week ago and only have diskeeper, quicken and
adobe reader installed. I don't see anything in the event viewer with a
similar time stamp. Is there another error log file I should check?

It sounds like an app that isn't authorized to run over a media extender

In the error log, see if there is mention of the app...

I've been having trouble getitng the xbox 360 to connect to my media
center pc.

I keep receiving an error messege saying "Another user or application
on
the
Windows Media Center-based PC has disconnected this device."

I can see My Pictures and My Music through the Windows Media Connect,
but
can't resolve my connection issue with the Media Center PC.

From reading through the posts here, I've disabled my windows
firewall,
reviewed the Event Viewer logs for something with a time stamp similar
to
the
attempted connection, updated my LAN driver and directly connected the
PC
and
the Xbox with an ethernet cable, bypassing my router, all with same
result
and error messege.

I've also followed the the 6 or 7 step troubleshooting guide with no
luck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks,
Steve
