    Hi everybody

    I've just bought an Asus A6Jc which includes IR receiver. It has installed XP Pro.

    I was wondering if I there's any software to be able to use Windows MCE remote control with my XP Pro.

    Actually, the only feature of MCE I'm interested in is that one, remote control to watch DVDs from my bed.

    Also, I don't want to add a USB receiver and use any remote control, I want to use my IR onboard receiver.

    Thanks,

    German
