Hi there,

I am trying to hook my PS3 up to my PC to play some videos (My 360 is hooked up and works just fine because it's connected through Zune), but whenever I try to turn on media sharing under Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center -> Advanced Sharing Options (to the left) ->under All Networks -> Turn Media Sharing on... it never stays on.

It always says that Media Sharing is off, I try to turn it on, but it still say so. I had my PS3 recognize the PC once, but then I changed the name of the media folder and now it's not picking anything up and refuses to stay "on". It's not a problem with the PS3 as I have all media sharing open on it and I was actually playing a video for a bit before I decided to rename my media folder in the screen after I click "Turn on media sharing".
