Vista and MVP

[msburton]

I am trying to configure two MVP's with SageTV. I had this setup working on my XP pc and can't seem to get it to work on Vista.

The MVP's keep loading thier own GUI's and not the SageTV dashboard. I downloaded version 3.4 MVP software.

The wierd thing is I walked away from one of the MVP's today and it started working with SageTV and Vista.

Does anyone have a step by step, including what drivers I need and don't need.

Thanks in advance.

First off, you shouldn't have the MVP software installed on any pc. It will override Sage. Secondly, you need to check your firewall, it could be blocking Sage from acting like a server. Also, is it Vista SP1+? The original Vista had some networking stack issues that caused all sorts of problems with extenders.
