[QUOTE="hunter33, post: 725913, member: 112094"] Thanks for the help, guys, it's much appreciated. I went with the first remote, [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16880121003]Newegg.com - AVS Gear GP-IR01BK Windows Vista Infrared MCE Black Remote Control[/url], and I'll update this thread if it doesn't work for some reason. Update: The remote works perfectly, Windows 7 detected it and installed it automatically. I did have some issues, though: -The "Power PC" button sleeps the computer. I disabled this under Windows setting "change what the power buttons do" -The "Power PC" button is actually "Power2" and cannot be remapped using standard remote plugin. Instead, I used the IRSS remote plugin to map the key. Otherwise, the standard MCE options work well. The remote is well built and I'm very happy with it. [/QUOTE]
