I followed the directions and yet it still says that there's no connection to the PC. I went to www.xbox.com/pcsetup and downloaded Zune but that seems to be a dead-end.Where do I type in the "set-up key"?

Now it recognizes that my PC is connected but it says that the Media Center isn't installed. Do I have to install it? It also is showing my videos and pictures but when I click on them, nothing is happening.

you dont need media center just windows media player 11. Then you must do some settings in Mp11 to allow the 360 to stream your pc media

The thing is...My Pictures aren't loading up, it just says "please wait..." for minutes at a time. It's not even recognizing my Music and I can see pictures of my videos but when I click on them nothing happens.

If you are using Windows Media Player 11, then make sure you ADDED the files to your library. It also only recogonizes certain files types. I think you can watch WMV'S and see JPEGs. AVI's haven't worked on my console. GIF's also don't seem to come up.

Since my XBox360 is always connected to my PC, it is worth it.

You would think the set up would at least tell you where the damn number is. They make is sound like it is obvious.

I seem to have discovered a new problem. I can view pictures in all of my folders EXCEPT for "My Pictures" folder. Everytime I click on it, it says "No pictures found". This is strange since I have a lot of pictures currently in "My Pictures".

Any suggestions?

i think you need the windows updates? do you have automatic updates on for your pc? if you have them all try this

when i first tried to connect, Zune wasnt installing right, make sure you turn your fws off and everything. if that doesnt work...
