Connect the IR receive/blaster “beanbag” to an open USB port on your PC. The drivers should automatically load. Check your device manager for a “Human Interface Devices” listing, which should contain: HID-Compliant consumer control device, HID-Compliant device (3 instances), and Microsoft eHome Infrared Transceiver. If the device does not get detected or fails to install, try a different USB port(s) on the PC or refer directly to Microsoft.
