Windows Forum / Windows Media / Devices / December 2005WMC and Xbox 360
Ok similar problems to those I read here, mainly the PC won't see the 360 (Pc wired to Linksys wireless router and 360 using MS wireless Bridge - the 360 also won't see the PC). Additionally I cannot get folder sharing to start in the settings panel of WMC. I click start but it never does and the box to tell it to automatically start is grayed out. I haven't seen this issue addressed anywhere so I thought I'd post it here. Thanks for any help. D Additionally I have tried the CACLS command line work arounds posted here and elsewhere and the WMC still won't initialize. I tried WMC on a wireless laptop connected to the same and network and bingo it worked forst time. Could it be the wireless NIC on the PC conflictin? The PC is also wired but the wireless NIC was installed for testing about a year ago and never removed. Thanks D The sharing service must be started for WMC to detect any devices. You need to concentrate on getting sharing started and then work on the detection problem after that. Start by checking the event log for detailed error messages.

My services log show a WMC Initialization error (I assume the same on mentioned in earlier posts). I ran the CACLS commands from the command line and WMC still will not start. I pretty much have given up and am using a laptop instead that does work. > The sharing service must be started for WMC to detect any devices.

Here it is: Service 'WMConnectCDS' failed to start correctly, due to 'InitializeNetworkMonitoring' returning error '0x80004005'. > What is the error message in the event viewer?

Unfortunately, we haven't been able to find a root cause for this problem. I've seen two or three other reports of this. James has a theory that this is related to UPnP, as much of the UPnP monitoring is setup in this function. Is the SSDP service started? Is the UPnP service started? Do you have more than one IP address assigned to the network card? Regards, SignatureAlan Ludwig Lead Software Development Engineer Windows Core Operating System Microsoft Corp.

Yeas both services afre started and the NIC only has one IP assigned but I do have two NICS (one wired and one wirelss). Could it be the wireless NIC is causing a conflict?? I should note that I can get the WMC to work on my work laptop so I have kinda worked around the issue, but I'd still rather use my desktop as it has over 3 gig of pictures and additional music my laptop doesn't. On a side note I use Yahoo Music Unlimited and the songs I download from it won't play on the 360. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

Please disregard the Yahoo questions as I resolved that issue on my laptop. > Yeas both services afre started and the NIC only has one IP assigned but I do > have two NICS (one wired and one wirelss).

It seems like James is already investigating this one. You should follow the instructions on this thread, and mail in the resulting logs as James suggests. James will take it from here. http://www.wmcplayer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=654#654 Regards, SignatureAlan Ludwig Lead Software Development Engineer Windows Core Operating System Microsoft Corp.
