Im currently going through the same issues Trevor was with connecting
my Media Centre XP 2005 to my 360. I have tried everything so this is
my last resort!
The funny thing was that when I firsst installed the Media Centre Xp
2005 software it worked for a bit now it does not! Thats the annoying
part. It gives me the nice message right after you finish putting in
the 360's number."Setup error A problem occured during setup. Please
run the setup again.
If the problem persists, contact your computer manufacturer for
assistance.

I tried your suggestions about the MCRD Users and test admin and still
no luck!

If you could provide any answer would be greatly appreciated! As the
online support for this issue was no help at all...

Thanks for your time,

Jared.
