[QUOTE="mickgreen58, post: 670611, member: 107797"] Thanks for the reply. First, I tried a workaround. I just simply plugged in a Mouse, so it could be used to select the MediaPortal icon on the Desktop and then my remote would take it from there. However, it seems like when the Mouse is used, it knocks my USB signal for the Remote off. I have no idea why it does that. Okay, I will re-install HIP and do as you say. Do I need to change back to MCE or keep it at General HID? For some reason my SIIG USB Receiver keeps getting knocked off, so I cannot do a HIP test. When I plug my iPhone into the same USB slot, the iPhone is recognzied, so I don't think the USB port is messed up. I'm thinking about ordering this, what do you guys think about this remote?

Oh well, been working on this since Saturday non-stop, I give up for tonight. [/QUOTE]
