I have both a 360 S and a Windows 7 PC i was just wondering how to do I hook them together to share media?
Note they are both hooked to the network by wi fi.

I remember in 2007 when I had my old Vista desktop it was just by one Ethernet Cable between the two devices, now when I try the same thing it does not work why?

Originally posted by paulguy Well, the difference between it working and not working depends on whether it's a crossover cable or a normal cable, if you're connecting 2 computers together.
I was linking a XBOX 360 and Windows Vista computer direct by one Ethernet cord between them is that the same as 2 computers hypothetically.

It is not the same cable as the one from a few years ago so I am thinking that the cable I was using then was cross over and the current won is a normal one.

Yes Waffle I know. Both devices sense the cable.
