I have been tearing my hair out for 2 days now trying to figure this out. All I want to do is connect my xbox 360 in my living room to my xbox through Media Center and watch some movies on my computer on my living room TV. But it simply is not working. I get the error “Cannot Set up Extender” every single time i input the code into my computer that my xbox gave me. Does anyone have any insight?
