[QUOTE="oldgit9, post: 822961, member: 117319"] im 99% done in building my HTPC. im just waiting on a tv card to arrive in the new year. in the mean time, i have been testing my build. at the moment, i have not connected the SSD. as i dont want to continually write to it and possibly damage it. so win 7 ultimate has been installed on my old 250GB HDD (going to be used for music on final set up). i installed all the drivers that came with motherboard, iMon, tv card etc and all are running fine. i installed MP and it looks all good when using a mouse. but i do not want to use a mouse.....thats why i bought the Silverstone LC16B in the first place, as it has a VDF screen and a remote. but when using the remote....well...its a nightmare. after configuring iMon and also messing around with the remote settings, i cant get the iMon Pad remote to work correctly. the remote basically has a mind of its own...one min it will work correctly, then it will go mental and things are selected without even pressing a button....then the remote will go on into a "go slow" mode. where you press some buttons and nothing will happen. most of the time, i have to press a button repeatedly to navigate anywhere. sometimes, it does as it's supposed to, but most of the time, a screen or option window will open and flicker repeatability. and i cant cancel out of it. unless i close MP. i would take a screen pic of the problem, but it would be pointless. as it would only show one part of the flicker and not the other screen. when i use the remote on the main windows screen, even this is a nightmare...the mouse is so sensitive. when i double press the left mouse button, the mouse pointer goes off and do its own thing. i have searched the forums and google for a resolve and i have tried some of the what i have found. but with no luck. these are the guides/fixes i have tried:- [url=http://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=84&topicid=26234]MediaPortal - Setup guide for Silverstone LC16M Case | iMon Remote Setup, iMon VFD Setup, iMon Front Button Hack[/url] i cant even import his remote settings.
