The Version 1 MCE remote is not well supported in many programs and has never been (as far as I know) supported by the Replacement Driver. The FAQ on ByRemote.com.au explains that.
I'd support the V1 remote in a heartbeat if I had one, but they are a bit rare these days.
It's nice that intelliremote seems to support it, but I don't think many people will agree with you when you say that HIP, EventGhost and IR Server Suite dont work. It might be more accurate to say that they don't support the Version 1 MCE Remote properly. I believe you can get the V1 MCE remote to work with both EventGhost and IR Server Suite, but it requires a little tweaking in both cases. In IR Server Suite you might be able to get it to work with either the keyboard relay program or the custom HID plugin, but I've not done it myself.
By the way, HIP, EventGhost and IR Server Suite are all free. And EventGhost and IR Server Suite are open source, so if someone wants to write a plugin to support Version 1 MCE remotes they can quite easily.
But this thread is about the replacement driver, so lets leave it at that.
Uh_Andy:
The replacement driver might not be the answer to your problems. What software have you tried so far?
