MP1 MP2 Windows restart DE
The problem is that since you don't have an internet connection you 're probably missing necessary updates in windows. Given the restarts, a hardware problem may be present as well. You need to test hardware and if all is ok try to take your computer to a friend or something so that you can update windows fully. Again MP logs are...

MP1 MP2 Conax CAM for Finland (Welho) (1 Viewer) DE
Shit! That's the reason I bought the FloppyDTV. I have a digibox for the SD channels, which works fine. I went for FloppyDTV because it would save me having to buy a HD digibox (plus could then control everything from MP). Do you know if this pairing issue will change in the future?

I've been reading the forums here for a couple days and one thing I cannot find is a definitive post on how to get media portal working with a STB and a working guide.

I must be really stupid cause I don't get this work the way I want.

MP1 MP2 AIM Remote DE
Ok. If you find a fix, please link to it here so others can make use of it. As a general rule of thumb, that remote should work as a standard MCE remote in MP. If its not, a quick route to a solution would be to set it up with Eventghost or Intelliremote, or similar.
