I have my IR receiver plugged in and it shows up as working properly in the
Device Manager. When I try and use my remote, the red LED lights up on the IR
receiver and the LED on the remote lights up but nothing happens. When I
press the green start button there is no response. I have tried uninstalling
the drivers for the receiver, reconnecting the receiver and restarting my
computer. I've also tried all the stuff at
http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/articles/487537.aspx. Is there something I am
missing? Would really appreciate the help. Thanks in advance:)

Wow, I feel dumb. I figured that since the LEDs were lighting up on both ends
that the batteries were fine. Thanks for the response :)
