    I have purchased a Notebook recently (dv2705tu) and a remote express card (or whatever it is called :D) came along with it by default. I believe that it's supposed to open Quick Play when I use it but strangely, my card does not work at all. Do I have to change some settings first ? I can't figure out how to use it myself, so if you know, can you kindly share with me ? Your help would be very appreciated :)

    well you can test that little remote by turning on your webcam, and then point the remote at the webcam and if you see light (which is infrared, which your eyes cant pick up, but the webcam can) then you know the remote is working or not. Also make sure the battery is in there properly
