Troubleshooting

When I press the a button on the remote, but nothing happens. Make sure that the following is true:

1. You are pointing the remote control directly at the receiver.
2. The USB sensor on the receiver is not covered up and no natural or artificial light is shining directly on it.
3. The remote control is within 33 feet of the receiver.
4. You have not minimized or exited Media Center. To reactivate Media Center, move the mouse, and then click anywhere in the Media Center window.
5. It takes time for Windows Vista ^TM to respond to MCE Remote's initial command. It varies due to different PC systems CPU speed.
