Hi, I have my music all stored on an external hard drive connected to my
Media Center 2005 PC via USB. I went through the steps on the PC to add the
collection to my Media Center library. I could then see all of the song
through the media center interface from the PC itself. I then tried to
access the music from my Xbox 360 but they do not show up (I thought they
would just be there since I had already gone through the steps to add them).
I can't even add them because it won't let me access the drive letter
associated with the external hard drive. How do I make them accessible via
the Xbox 360? I would like to listen to that music through my entertainment
center instead of just the PC. Thanks in advance for the help.

Update. I purchased a Linksys extender and the music IS available through
that extender but is still not available via the Xbox 360. Any ideas. Let me
know.

Thanks.
Steve
