Re: where are vista pre-installed remote control drivers+registry

Thank you for your reply; Ã*ll try the 'run as administrator' later. I noticed
that the drivers are not suited for x64 yet, however they work perfectly. The
only thing is that they wont stick (this is only the case for the
remotecontrol driver, not for the tv-card drivers) I allready asked on the
Hauppauge site, and the (unofficial?) Vistax64 site) after doing some
research, but they can't answer my question. All pointers given had already
been tried by me.

Do you, or anyone, know for a fact that there are remote-control drivers
pre-installed in the vista installation (the ones that are supposed to work
with the WMC-remote?) And if so, can you please give me the names of those
drivers (and locations), and also the registry entrys that belong to them? I
wouldnt know where else to go look for those... Can't find anything on the
internet about it; Thanks again
