    VISTA and Remote controls

    I have just loaded Vista premium on my PC and I cannot get my packard bell
    remote control to work on Windows Media Centre, does anyone have any ideas
    how to get it to work. I have tried the pb website but they only have drivers
    for xp.

    I don't believe that the PC remotes work in Media Center, any flavor - XP or
    Vista. You need a true Media Center remote.
