Media Center Extender gives error code 2003

I recently bought a media center extender, but I can get it to work with my
HP computer.

Going through the setup everything seems to go fine until it tries to verify
the "security ". At that point the media center extender shows a "general
failure" with the "error code 2003" and reboots.

Looking at the event log on the media center computer, I get the following
messages:

AffConfirm RQ- Device - successfully
affiliated

ERROR: KeyExch RQ3 Device - There was
an error processing this request. Error code 0x80004005

I switched all my firewalls off, I tired wired connection, a wireless
connection, a different router, I even tried a direct x-over cable between
the PC and the extender to make sure the hub was not interfering, but no
success. It keeps giving me this error message.

Any suggestions??

Thanks

One more point, I have 2nd harddrive in computer which is a dynamic drive (it
only contains data, no operating system files and has its own drive letter).
Since I know that dynamic drives can cause problems, I disconnected the drive
but still the same problem. Can this still have anything to do with my
dynamic drive? Is there anything else I need to do to get around the dynamic
drive problem? The dynamic drive disappeared from the disk manager after I
disconnected it. It seemed to me that this would have solved any dynamic
drive problem if there would have been one...

Correct?
