The light on the it receiver is flashing when I press buttons but still no control. Icve gone into the setup options and made sure that the proper selections are made there and nothing. Do I have to have Microsoft media center installed for the remote to work? Any other thoughts about what I might be doing wrong or further troubleshooting please? Thanks!

In my very limited experience, two possibilities:
(1) That the driver is not the right one, or not fully installed (check Device Manager and see what is listed)
(2) That you do not have Media Server running - go to Tools->Options->Startup->Windows Startup and select Run on Windows startup: Media Server (or both Media Center and Media Server).

Thanks for the response Ken. I have checked those things. Here's where I am currently. I could not get the new remote and tranceiver to work after fooling with drivers and seeing everything in the control panel I was supposed to see. So I have resorted back to a generic usb/ir sensor and universal remote. With that setup I can work up down left right and enter in theater view and do similar in standard view. When I try and learn commands I can learn up down left right and enter (notvthat I need to learn them again, just experimenting) and as soon as I get to play stop etc. It stops learning and advancing. I can learn up down etc. as play stop etc. if you follow what I'm saying. I've tried different code sets and I'm confident the ir sensor is being sent ir when I press play because the ir emitter flashes and I can see the ir with the camera on my phone. I've literally been searching for weeks in my spare time for an answer to this problem. Any suggested solutions from anyone would be greatly appreciated. I would really like to have more extensive control via remote but I'm stumped. Thanks!

Upgraded with no problem, my license transferred, love it BUT... I'm left with 17 and 18 on my computer, okay to just uninstall 17 as if you accidentally start 17 you find yourself juggling licenses... Thanks.
