[QUOTE="Statick, post: 351009, member: 86182"] i'm having a similar problem, on XP MCE 2005, which means i often have to restart the input service firstly, after a suspend/resume the remote does not work until i restart the input servce - the receiver lights up to say it's receiving, but my mapped commands do not take place also, sometimes the remote doesn't work on a cold startup without a service restart. this is intermittent, sometimes it works, sometimes not. i get the impression that the service is starting before the remote receiver is ready. also, i have some kind of fault on this motherboard that means USB devices occasionally get power-cycled, that is, they get get momentarily disconnected then reconnected. i suspect it's a power issue as it happens more frequently when more bus-powered devices. anyway, when this happens i get the same problem - the remote receiver indicates it's receiving properly, but my mapped commands won't work until a service restart. i appreciate that this i caused by a fault on my system, but it would be nice if the input service could detect when a device comes online and react accordingly there does not appear to be a way of delaying the service startup when the system boots, as per an earlier suggestion, so i'm guessing that is vista only (this would have helped with one of the problems) any suggestions would be gratefully received [/QUOTE]
