Install Windows 7, Update it with Windows Updates, Install CIR Driver, don't let The Installer of CIR Reboot your System.
Windows have to download and Install Patches after the Install of the Driver. When thats done, you can Reboot and now shouls
see the CIR and virtual HID Devices in Windows Device Manager.

Hi
I can confirm that this does indeed work! I put in a blank hard drive into my HTPC and installed Windows 7 and all the latest drivers from the Intel website for my Intel DH67CF media board apart from the CIR driver. I then installed all the Windows updates and when they were all on, I finally installed the Intel CIR driver. The MCE remote control would then work in Windows Media Center and I could also turn on the PC from S3/S5.
I then disconnected the hard drive and reconnected my existing SSD drive with OpenElec V3.02 on it. And now I can still turn on the PC from S3/S5 with the OpenElec OS!
Previously when using the CIR board I could not turn on the PC at all from either S3 sleep or S5 shutdown, but installing Windows 7 as described seems to have done the trick, but I have no idea what it actually does to enable this feature for Linux installs.
Thanks
