Nerm Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Does anyone know if it is possible to get an XP MCE remote to work on Vista Home Premium w/ Media Center? This is the remote I have: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16880100851 There is a customer note on there that says it will work, but who knows how reliable that is lol.

With those remotes usually it's just a matter of plugging in the remote receiver into the computer and usually vista just installs the drivers for it.

Verran Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 I have personally done this and had no problems. I have the same exact remote (with USB IR receiver) and it worked just fine with Vista Media Center. No drivers required or anything. It picked up the receiver automagically and installed without an issue. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
