All,
I recently upgraded laptops and now am running Win7 32bit. I installed MX-810 prowizard and then ran it as adminstrator and as expected, it updated. I closed the software and then connected my MX-810. Windows tried to install drivers but failed, so I ran the add hardware wizard and pointed to the "...Vista\64 bit" drivers folder and Windows said it was not a valid driver. I tried every driver in the "drivers" folder and got the same result.
How in the world am I suppossed to install the drivers for this remote?
Thanks!
Russell

The drivers for 32-bit Windows 7 should be in:
Program Files\Universal Remote Control, Inc\MX-810 ProWizard\drivers\Windows Vista\x86

That's what I thought dalto, but I tried every driver file in the Vista folder and Windows didn't take any of them. I even disconnected the remote, rebooted, and tried a different USB port. All to no avail. How exactly should I go about installing the driver?
I was using the start-->run-->hwwzd approach. Is there a different way?

It should pop open a window when you plug in the remote. If it doesn't, you can go to control panel->device manager
There should be an unknown device in there when the remote is plugged in.
Right click on it and select update driver.
