You did not come across that way, you seem frustrated (if you can read frustration), and I am often, very wrong :) This forum needs me to balance out the very smart people :):o I see where you got the inspiration to delve into the registry. I am 100% completely out of my league when it comes to windows anomalies. I don't think I have ever recovered from a blue (now black) screen of death, or a "startup repair" without hours of frustration ending in a clean install. So, I really can't help you with windows. The other members that are trying to help are far better to guide you in the details of your system. I was just trying to encourage the swap out approach and then try to eliminate the variable. For example, if you had another pi (or your pi with a fresh SD), I would try a clean install of picoreplayer, maybe add a third partition to the SD card and/or a thumb drive, mount those, then see if Samba behaves as expected with the same windows box, or another if you have one. My experience with that approach is you will have something basic that works right, and then add a piece back at a time until it breaks. Then you know. For example, you eliminated the controllers, but not the disk itself. A thumb drive will do that if the thumb drive also behaves badly. good luck Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Redrum's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116037 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
