I am really ready to lose it.
I have spent the last 24 hours trying to get this crap to all work together.
I am running a Win7 machine with all my media files shared thru it. I used to have win7 on my htpc, and xbmc picked up the shares just fine, never had a problem, never gave it a second though.
But now I got my foxconn 330i up and running and decided to use xbmclive on it. First I couldnt get unetbootin and dharma rc1 to play nice and install. Read somewhere on xbmcfreak that beta4 worked, so had to settle for that.
Now I get on the system, get my wireless working on the system (atleast I think I did, dont know how to verify) and well I cant use SMB I guess. Duh Windows isnt the operating system, so why did I think that would work. But then I start reading that it can work. But I tired 10 different things, none of which work, I am pulling my hair out and dont know what to do. I am probably overtired at this point and shouldnt be working on this thing. I get the Error - Error 2: share not available popup.
I have no clue how to get SMB to work on my live machine and I tried looking into upnp, which also make my head hurt. I like easy and all this isnt.
Can anyone suggest anything? What should I do? All I want to do is share files from my windows machine to my live machine.
Please!
