I found when I built a new system, I was no longer able to get my<br>
MCEUSB2 remote working. I never tracked down the exact cause, but it<br>
looks to be an issue with the USB controller. I ended up just getting<br>
one of these instead.<br>

Thomas Mashos<br></blockquote></div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">I've had various problems with my USB IR receiver/blaster which the manufacturer claims to be a problem with the USB host interface (even though no other device has problems with it...). Their tech support recommended that I use a USB hub in between the receiver and motherboard. The problems were mostly mitigated when I upgraded the motherboard, but I still ran into occasional device lockups which required a reboot to revive (unplug/replug was not enough), but I re-installed the USB hub and it hasn't happened since. Might be something to consider if you're having USB receiver problems.<br>
