[seether9111]

hello all. I AM NEEDINg a bit of help setting up my media center extender on my pc.
I AM trying to network my 360 to my pc.my pc found the 360 and asked me if i wanted to set up the extender, so i click yes.
after following all the instructions, the media center attempts to launch on my tv screen , but then it says on my tv screen"CONNECTION TERMINATED THE XBOX360 has been disconnected because an application launched UI unexpectantly".??????????
thats as far as i get, and the 360 starts over trying to connect??
please someone help if you can, has anyone here ever successfully used the 360 as an extender???
thanks for any help!!!

You might need to port forward your router

please explain??
i have everything networked together correctly through my modem/router.it starts to work fine and then i get error message on my tv.

Good old Microsoft, only they could make a home user product crash on a console...

You may have better luck getting help on an Xbox forum.

That doesn't make sense. Port forwarding is for getting a computer outside of the home network into it.

I don't know if this will be any help, but a while ago I made a tutorial on how to set up an Xbox 360 as a Media Center Extender. http://mypieceoftheinter.net/archives/264

Good luck!

Try it, I had to do it

I've done port forwarding for uTorrent and Remote Desktop, but both of those are for accessing things inside the home network from the outside...
