[QUOTE="fboecom, post: 998585, member: 86674"] I checked the firewall setting on the different machines - some screenshots here, sorry the 2 Win8 machines are in Dutch. I see strange things - I never changed anything: the Win8 AMD client only doesnt have MP private settings (the Win7 I7 client only does). Further I see no outbound MP settings on teh TVServer but that must be normal(?). Lastly the Client only machines also have TV Server entries that point to C:\Progra...etc\TVServer - but that exe doesnt exist - not on the Win8 client (that fails) nor on the Win7 client (that works). Pretty misty stuff. By writing here I realize the Win7 is English and the Win8 are Dutch windows versions. I hope that isnt making the difference... Anyway I'll try to add the MP private settings, I saw there is a Win7 firewall script - will work for Win8 too?[DOUBLEPOST=1369946145][/DOUBLEPOST]OK I decided to give it a quick try - and it is fixed indeed.
