    Transfering movies from My Win7 PC to My PS3


    Hey Guys

    I'm currently running on Windows 7 RTM and the problem is when I transfer movies from my PC to my PS3, my PC just randomly disconnects from the router/ internet, I mean it comes up on the bottom left corner on the network icon "No Internet Access", so I'm assuming it's disconnected from the router, but the router lights indicates that my PC is connected to it and when I go to Network Sharing Adapter Settings, I click on my Local Area Connection, click on Disable then Enable and that's it, It's connected and working again, but when I try transfer another movie or song, my PC just disconnects again.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but is there any chance it could be an issue in Windows 7? as it worked perfectly fine on Windows XP.

    Any solution?

    Thank you.

    In my PS3, there is a menu called Media Servers, the PS3 scans for them and I'm guessing it's finding it through my network and on my Win7 Homegroup then my PS3 is displaying all My Pictures, Music and Videos and I choose which one I want to transfer.

    Try setting the PS3 to connect at half-duplex. You'll still get full network speeds. I had to do this actually, to get full network speeds.

    Any solution?

    Thank you.

It wold lag immediatey and stutter. At half duplex, I stream absolutely anything, even uncompressed HD stuff no prob.
