Re: error messages in mce 2005, why?

The remote is considered optional, since you can order an MCE PC without a tuner. Most vendors like Sony, Dell, Compaq consider the remote an option. There are some 3rd party products (Logitech Harmony for example, but you can buy the MS remote/Receiver combination many places.

For online retailers, NewEgg.com generally has the best prices.

Thanks, that worked!

Just a question...shouldn't my Sony Vaio laptop (or any Media Center 2005
equipped pc / laptop) come with a remote control? If that is not a default
piece of item with MCE, what remote could I use that would work with my
laptop?

Sony Vaio VGN-FE770G / MCE 2005.

Thanks.
