PS its not a firewall issueTimothyB
So it seems that the PC is not visible to any devices on the network. When you say you connect the 360 straight to the pc, how exactly, like the ethernet cable from the 360 stright to the back of the PC, bypassing the router and internet?
What if you resetup the internet and home network on the PC? Simple wizard setup to tell the PC that it uses the internet from a network, and other sharing options. Maybe some how it's currently setup to just access internet without being part of a home network.
The pc is visible to other pcs just not the 2 360 or my PS3OK for the first post goto dash system tab check your settings for connecting to a pc. There is an option for disconnecting if already connected to a pc to restablish a connection. Try this and post. The 3rd post you will need XP Media Center edition or Vista to watch videos, not Media Player.CorporateHammerYa with the fall update you cant do that anymore, when the 360 is wireless it wont see my (wired) vista pc but it will see my bros(wireless) vista laptop
