I have simular problem when I try to use my Microsoft wireless keyboard while
in Media Center, I will not accept keystrokes when I try to enter a title for
a Album I am copying to the media center. If I hit the same key about 10
times I may if I'am very lucky a single correct character. I seem the media
center only want to accept imput from the microsoft remote. The keyboard
works fine outsite the Media Center, and th wireless mouse works fine
everwhere. Any Ideas?
