Vista x32 and MCE Replacement Driver for Vista

andyd · 2007-04-05, 01:49

Hi,

I know that there is already an existing thread but I thought I would start a new one since this issue is not (I think) related to this issue.

Now I ditched x64 in favour of x32 as I was getting sick of not finding any drivers that worked etc.

So I did a clean install of Vista x32 and installed the replacement MCE driver and HIP. I know my hardware works as I have had ity working under MCE with no issues what so ever.

Now if I run hip and tell it to learn the codes from my Sky STB (Pace DSR600). I find that HIP will learn the codes and if I go and tell it to send the codes then nothing happens. I can see the Led's flashing on the blaster and I have tried using different ports with no avail.

So I gave up on HIP (in case it was a compatibility issue) and just tried to use the command line utilities "IRrec" and "IRPlay" (I think thats the name of them) Anyway I got the same result.

has anyone got any pointers for me? I replaced the existing MceIR.dll that hip came with and replaced it with the one that Aaron recompiled but with no luck...

If someone could help, I would be very greateful!
