[QUOTE="LowNoiseBloke, post: 763555, member: 324466"] If you can't mount the W7 share on the DM500 then first check that both devices are in the same network domain - e.g i/p addresses such as 192.168.0.24 and 192.168.0.1. You should also check for any fire-wall problems on your lan - W7 might be too restrictive. Personally I wouldn't use any flavour of Windows as a server, but as Terryl says you might need to go back to XP Pro to get things to work. It might be beneficial to try mounting the share from the command line in a telnet session on the DM500 rather than using the blue button in setup.A command such as this one works for me when I need to use a Samba (SMB protocol) share as a hard disk on DM7000/7020 : mount -t cifs -o username=dreambox,password=letmein //192.168.0.2/Recordings /hdd Hope this helps [/QUOTE]
