No, just, my xbox doesn't show up in the NCPA.CPL screen so I can't bridge them, and when I click properties for my wifi in NCPA the sharing tab isn't there because I don't have 2 connections

I THINK I KNOW WHY IT WONT WORK, I DON'T HAVE THE ETHERNET DRIVERS IN DEVICE MANAGER
yeah, if I understand what u were trying to do correctly, u were trying to plug the xbox 360 in via ethernet to your computer, then using the computer's wifi connection to the router by bridging both connections in network settings? this is also a good way to transfer content at lightning speed from the internal hdd for either the 360 or the ps3 (especially the ps3!). btw, I think there's a wifi adapter for systems that old. I've never used it though, so I don't know how well it works. I have my 360 plugged directly into my router since it's right next to it. 
Sorry for not being clear enough lolyeah, if I understand what u were trying to do correctly, u were trying to plug the xbox 360 in via ethernet to your computer, then using the computer's wifi connection to the router by bridging both connections in network settings? this is also a good way to transfer content at lightning speed from the internal hdd for either the 360 or the ps3 (especially the ps3!). btw, I think there's a wifi adapter for systems that old.

I can't be bothered to buy the adaptor
And my 360 is in my bedroom instead of downstairs where the router is lol
glad u got it working. if u ever jtag and rgh the machine, u can use the same setup to backup the internal hdds files. using those third-party apps to make an image of the drive often fail if it's over 500GBs.
Nice, thanks for letting me know, I am running out of room on my HDD so I was going to move my games over to a new one but I didn't know
Lol, I might have to go with the cable unless i can get an rgh (Cuz they're cheaper than jtag right?)
