go into control panel and try using add legacy hardware it will show any errors if there are files missing from server 2k8 that are required for your hardware
Already did this… The message that I get is ” The folder doesn’t contain any driver compatible with your hardware” … I am running out of ideas 🙁

In step 5.
After you installed the “eHome Infrared Receiver” did device manager detect an “unknown device”?
The driver for the “unknown device” is in the rar-file. You have to manually select “I choose a driver location” and point to the extracted folder HIDCLASSCIRCLASSIRDEVICE. A list should appear with the manufacturers and you select “Microsoft” in the left window pane. Then in the right pane you select “eHome Infrared Transceiver”.
Hope it helps. Please write back with response.Yes, I get the unknown device. the problem is that when I point to that inf file in HIDCLASSCIRCLASSIRDEVICE it show me that The location don’t contain any driver for my remote. I am using a Topseed remote (that is automatically detected and installed in Vista).
Thank you for instructions. In my case verything went well up to the step no 5. After I install the eHome Infrared receiver it refuse to install the driver from HIDCLASSCIRCLASSIRDEVICE – Did you change anything here in the inf file?

I have uploaded the drivers here:

Steps to take:
1. Download the drivers, and extract them somewhere …
2. If not enabled, enable the service “Human Interface Device Access”.
3. Plugin the IR-receiver.
4. In the device manager, at device named “eHome Infrared Transceiver” has been discoveret. Install the driver “eHome Infrared RECEIVER” in the file irbus in the archive.
5. A new unknown device will be detected. Install the driver “Microsoft eHome Infrared TRANSCEIVER” from HIDCLASSCIRCLASSIRDEVICE.
6. Done.
The drivers are from Vista x86 Sp1 UK.Can someone provide clear steps on how to migrate Vista x32 drivers for a MCE vista remote control to Windows 2008 server x32?
