IR Hardware Not Detected - PLEASE HELP!!!



Please, if anybody can help this is getting really frustrating.

I am trying to set MCE to control my satellite set top box but can't get
pass the point where it checks for the IR Blaster.

I connected everything according to the instructions but MCE keeps saying
"IR Hardware Not Detected".

I'm using OEM MCE 2005 and OEM MCE remote control which I purchased from
NewEgg.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
.
