A different 'No Media Found' Error - Windows XP

Hi all, I’ve seen numerous posts with this same error but the issue I’m having seems to be slightly different and I’m hoping it’s something simple that I’ve missed.

I see my PC (running windows XP) fine on my WDTV Live via the Network Share option but when I select this I’m getting the No Media error. I thought I had found a solution to this by creating a designated login on the PC called WDTVLive with no password. I cleared the saved login credentials on the WD and turned off the automatic login to network sharing. When promoted for the new details I put these in and bingo! I could access all the files (music, pictures and video) that I had shared on the PC… but here’s the strange part this only works a single time. After I turn off the WD and turn it back on again this login no longer finds the files. If I then create a new different login on the PC and repeat the above steps I get access to the files but again only as a one off???

This seems to happen whether I set the WD network login to automatic or manual. Any help would be very much appreciated.
