Help Allshare and WMP 11 (sprint epic) HELP

I am trying to get Allshare to work. Trying to get my phone and my pc set up through Allshare.

so is there any fix to this? Ive been searching for the last few hours with no luck. Here is exactly what happens...I have the Sprint EPIC...and I use Vista. I spent hours trying to set it up, but it never worked. I can connect to my PC and view media files, but I can only look at pictures. If I try to play an MP3 or watch a compatible video file, allshare says the file cannot be played. On the pc, windows reports that the media sharing service has stopped unexpectedly. I can restart the service and resume media sharing but as soon as I try again the same things happens.

please help!

I'm sorry I don't have much to offer you. I used Vista and had all kinds of problems with my phone connectivity to the PC... now I use windows 7 and everything runs just fine. Maybe an upgrade in OS?
