Uninstall all remote software like intelliremote, irserversuite and so on. (They can block the mce service from windows 7) Than restart your pc 1: Do like 1 +2 (perhaps also point 3) from dedi`s post 3: deactivate all plugins like keyboard, xxremote etc. 4: Add Plugin:" mce remote " and leave "disable hid devices" enabled (you can re enable hid device with right click on mce plugin !) 5: restart pc. You have to start eventghost as administrator on win7 (Maybe not necessary, but the function disable hid service makes it necessary, i think) 6: Do like 5, 8 + 9 in dedi`s post 7: Press every Key on the Remote (in Eventghost). On the left panel the line with "MCE.Remote.mce[Command]" has do be drag&dropped to [+]Mediaportal/[Command].
