Xbox 360 Extender: Connection Failed

Hi,
This is my first post, so i'd like to start off by saying hello I'm reallying liking the information on this forums so far.

Anyway down to bidness..

I recently had an issue with my xbox 360 extender after disabling one of the media center extender services in vista x64 ultimate. After trying trying to connect to the media center service i got this error:
Connection Failed
The Xbox 360 cannot connect to the Media Center based PC. Make sure the Media Center based PC is turned on and connected to the network. If you continue to see this error, check Media Center Extender Help on your Media Center based PC.

Did a little digging and found this MS KB which resolved my problem. Hope it is of some use to you guys.
