| | |
| Before you can access your Xbox harddisk-drive via My Network Places, you will have to have your
| |
| Xbox connected to your computer's network and have a network already set up. There are many ways to
| |
| connect your Xbox to your network, it all depends on how your home network is set up. As there are
| |
| many setup configurations that are possible, it would be simpler to either [http://www.Google.com Google] for information or follow the instructions that (probably) came with your computer. If you
| |
| need further help setting up a home network or getting your Xbox connected to your existing home
| |
| network, the contact info for the author of this article is at the bottom of this page for your
| |
| assistance.

| | |
| | |
| == Setup Instructions ==
| |
| | |
| First, on your computer click the "Start" button. Then navigate to "My Network Places". On the
| |
| left hand side of the window that pops up you should see an option for "Add a network place". Click
| |
| on that. On the next window that pops up ("Add Network Place Wizard") click the "Next" button. You
| |
| will most likely be given one of two choices; "MSN Communities" and "Choose another network
| |
| location". Select "Choose another network location" and click the "Next" button. In the "Internet or
| |
| network address" textbox, type "ftp://xbox@", without the quotation marks, followed by the IP address
| |
| of your Xbox. In the next textbox that you are presented with, type the name that you wish to give
| |
| this network place (most likely something along the lines of "My Xbox"). Then click the "Next" button
| |
| and then the "Finish" button. Now, when you click on the start button in windows and then click on
| |
| the "My Network Places" link, you will have an icon representing your available connection to your
| |
| networked Xbox.
