    So I could have had the latest image in flash. I thought for the images with multiboot in their name meant they had to be flashed with the cables method.Not to worry you learn something new everyday.I will now flash the latest Dream image.

    Back in a bit..........

    I`ve tried to mount my pc in the network setup.The box just hangs. By the way my setup is wireless between VU+ and pc,does this matter?I had my DB 7025 hard wired to my pc and that still didn`t work.Funny thing did happen, when I went into the network browser,my VU+ Ip showed up and so did the IP of another PC.I`m assuming it was either my wife`s PC or my daughter`s laptop as they are both connected to my network wirelessly.But why doesn`t my PC Ip show up?

    I`ve established the PC IP showing in network browser is my daughter`s laptop.So I created a folder on it and allowed it to be shared.But when I try to expand the IP in network browser nothing shows up.

    It should just be a case of enabling file and printer sharing on your PC, and sharing and folders or location you wish

    OK, if you explore local network on PC, can you see the PC name there, or any others?

    I'm running Vista ATM.
    I had to enable network discovery.
    Once I have enabled the PC to join the network I use simple setting.
    My network is called WORKGROUP, I sleceted partition H, enabled sharing of that partition and that was it.
    What operating system are you running?

    OK, if you have already enable file and printer sharing.
    Here's my way of doing it.
    Right click on "my computer" either icon on desktop or from the start menu, left click on explore.
    Down the left pane of the explorer window we got desktop, and all drives and partitions on the pc.
    Near bottom you see my network places , expand it by clicking the wee box to the left with the + in it.
    When expanded you should see all hardware on the network.

    Here hopefully you can see what I mean.
    The Pic shows the network viewed from my CCTV PC.
    You won't see my VU+ in the list because I don't have 1 at the mo but you can see another PC, and my popcorn hour all on the same network.
