"PC Not Listed" XBox 360 - Solution
This was driving me mad, my PC (XP SP3) could see the XBox from Windows Media Player 11, but for some reason the XBox kept reporting "PC Not Found". I searched the internet for hours and tried every solution under the sun, including the renaming/deleting of the DRM folder, disabling firewalls (both Kaspersky and Windows) as well as fiddling around with settings in the Netgear router. Nothing worked. Then I thought I'd try running the Windows "Set up a home or small office network" wizard found inside Network Connections, just to ensure that the settings within Windows were correct for networking. Hey presto, the XBox could now, finally, see the PC. I hope this helps anyone else who is pulling their hair out on this!

hi geoff,
can you be more specific with what you used when you went into network connections? Ive been having the same problem and I'm going crazy
You need to run the "Set up a home or small office network" wizard (found inside the Network Connections window on Windows XP) when both the XBox and computer are running and connected to the wireless (or wired) router. It worked for me, good luck.
Brilliant! Who would've thought...worked perfectly on my Windows XP machine and Xbox 360 Elite. Thanks so much!
It can also be very beneficial to get your Xbox to the ground. The main idea is to get your food on the floor up the heat.Do not put your Xbox on carpet. This blocks the vents and cause overheating of the system very quickly.
