Hi,
I have been able to install GBPVR as well as mvpmcx2 on my PCH A110 using the CSI - everything works great. The challenge that this method requires a HD in the PCH and I don't really need one there as I stream all my content from my computer.
As an alternative, I've been trying to use the dummies guide to install using a network share (NMTInstall program - http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=38896)
I've followed all the instructions but I cannot see the network share -- running a Windows 7 PC. I think it must be a firewall issue.. but can't figure it out, here's what I've done...
1. Enabled simple file sharing
2. Disabled password protected sharing
3. Created a guest account
4. Run the NMTInstall program - didn't get it to install GBPVR but I did ensure that the windows firewall setup scripts are run.
5. Changes security settings on c:\mvpmcx to share the folder
6. Ensured my PCH firmware is the latest and greatest
7. Changed PCH video to 1080i
8. Disabled any firewall on my router
9. Run msconfig to not boot any other program except GBPVR (to ensure no other software on the PC is creating a firewall)
When I select my PC from the network browser, it doesn't see any shares. I'm totally lost, what could I be missing? I even tried totally disabling Windows firewall and no luck.
thanks,
Steve
