Hmm, weird issue. My xbox won't see my computer properly. Both on the same network and the same workgroup. Now here's where it gets interesting.

I turned on sharing in WMP and my Xbox finally sees the damn computer, sort of. Go into video library on the Xbox and it goes straight into my music folder. (Bear in mind that I'm not talking about My Documents here, I'm talking about my E: drive) It sees one artists folder that has one music video in and sees that file. It also sees the folder marked Music Videos and yet won't see the files in that folder.

My biggest bugbear though is that it will NOT see my main sharing drive. The drive with all the movies on. The drive is shared up the wazoo but the Xbox still won't see it. I don't know what to try =(

A few more details:
XP Pro SP3
WMP11
Sharing drive is C:
System drive is D: (Make any difference?)

HELP ME!!!!

Are you sure it's an xbox? It could be an imitation cardboard cut out.

Is the E: drive part of your windows media player library?

All of my files except my movies are on E: (What would normally be D: ) All the music is added to the WMP libraries.
