Thanks for the info, a couple of extra threads that I hadn't yet read up on. However still giving the same advise.
I have diabled all firewall in both Windows and my Trend Micro. Not using Norton
Date/Time is via Windows and I've now reset the date/time, unchecked the auto feature too
Re set the steup on Media Centre and still with no joy, the the error message is now back to # 34.
Is the time via Windows or a bios that I read in a blog?
