    Win XP Media Center Edition 2005 on HP dv9023us. DirecTV Sat receiver not recognized by Media Center, I see that's well documented. I can do without the remote, just use the one that came with the D10 receiver. However, every time I start MC and click on LiveTV, it starts the whole setup thing again. How can I just use Media Center without the remote? I managed to get it to work a few days ago, even did a test recording which worked just fine. But now I can't find a way to use the Live TV at all because MC wants to configure the remote control to work with the receiver. I know it can be done since I did it before, but I don't know how I did it. HELP please!

    Thanks,
    Linda in Virginia
