W7 & Extender

[darin3000]

I have a D-Link DSM750; works great on Vista. When I run under W7, all is fine and I hear the sound of the extender connecting. As soon as it connects, the tv screen goes solid blue....sounds are there, but cant see anything. Works fine on PC screen.

i just noticed what you were talking about with my 360 hooked up via wifi, have you tried just waiting a few seconds thats what i did and the picture came up.

doesnt do it connected via ethernet but on mine im using a old pc as wireless adapter so im not getting the best signal

I am considering buying this, can you confirm that it actually will work with win7? I currently have my video card hooked up to my TV via extremely long svideo cable, I thought this would be better.....any thoughts?

This is a very bad time to buy an extender. Of the current ones aside from the XBox 360 have been basically discontinued. Wait until CEDIA next week and hopefully a the future of Media Center Extenders will be more clear. If current v2 extenders work ok but unless you get a very very good price on them (my price point would be $50) I'd rather spend a little extra and ION based system.
