Problems with iPad & Webremote rebooting 'headless' MC16
« on: June 01, 2011, 08:44:20 am »

Hiya guys, I'm having issues with a headless Win7Pro machine running MC16.  I need it to be controlled by an iPad solely and when I reboot the PC (for whatever reason) it doesn't load MC16 right away - I can ping it but I can't browse into port 52199.

However as soon as I Remote Desktop (RDP) into it I see MC16 loading and it then works fine.  I've not changed the Bios setting or meddled with the Win7 options so no idea why a reboot causes the MC to hang.  Nothing obvious in Event Viewer and I think the original install of MC15 worked fine.  Windows Startup is set for 'Run on Windows Startup;Media Centre 16'

Any ideas?  Thanks in advance Andy

Welcome to the forum.  Try setting the startup option to "Media Server".
