1st post here but been successfully using SB2&3 / SS for nearly 2 years. Here from despair at SlimServer crashing on 2 computers and inablility to get it working after over 2 months of troubleshooting and working with Slim Support group (email & telephone). Summary of failure follows: *No problem w/SlimServer until downloading ver.6.5.1 end of March. *Shortly after downloading new version, unable to connect to SS (no localhost 9000) *Downloaded SS to another PC (laptop) & it failed in the same manner (could not connect via localhost 9000) *Searched these forums for localhost 9000 problems and tried fixes; no luck. *PCs use different virus protection & Windows firewall *Tried with & w/o virus protection & firewall; no change *Desktop has Windows Media Center; Lap Windows XP w/SP2 (all current updates) *De-installed & re-installed more times than I can count& gone back to SS ver 3._ and none work. *Networked w/Linksys router(wired) & broadband Internet (Comcast)
All that to say I'm out of ideas and on the verge of abandoning my Squeezeboxes unless I can get help here. Any ideas or suggestions most appreciated....Please!! -- Shep ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Shep's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11857 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35875 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
