The Johnnynine Weblog - Getting URC MX-980 remote to work in Vista/Windows7
A weblog by Johnny Hughes

This works with both 32bit and 64bit versions.

The gist is that Vista and Windows 7 don’t recognize the remote when plugged into the usb port. Although after upgrading the MX-980 editor via Live Update there is a Vista driver under the program’s usb directory you need to assign the device in Device Manager to “Microsoft USB Sync” instead.

1. Install Mobile Device Center 6.1

2. Use Device Manage (after waking up the remote) to update it’s driver to “Microsoft USB Sync”.
