using a MCE remote to control the mouse

Post by Tikker »

how the hell can I accomplish this?

I found an app that does it, and it works not bad

only problem is the guy wants $25 for it, and it doesn't run as a service
ie, the time when you really need to move the mouse is at startup to select a user, and that's impossible with this guy's app

Set up your MCE box to only have 1 user and no password, also make sure your dont have .net framework installed. Then it wont even ask you to login and just boot to your desktop and let you setup the software to start on boot.
For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.

.net is required for media portal, so can't avoid that
