Hi,
I already have an HTPC that I built, and is doing great now, thanks to
Vista SP1. Now, I bought a laptop that came with Vista premium, and every
time I use my remote for the HTPC, the laptop also starts to run MCE. How do
I disable, or preferbaly, change freq/channel so the remote works with only
one computer.
Thanks,
Mukesh

I think you would have to physically separate the two MCE units.
Or unplug the USB cable of the IR transceiver from one of the MCE computers.
