I could never get Samba to work with windoz xp or x64 so I gave up and used XBMC and windoz x64. Set it up as tuxbox://192.xxx.xxx.xxx:80/ in XBMC connects just fine with E2 receiver. Don't know if you have the tuxbox type files in your receiver. But you might also try all the other protocols in XBMC, you just might get lucky.
