It appears as if the driver isn't loaded If i boot straight to XBMC (in Win 7), using the following guide (using the MMC in step 2 -- no eventghost):

Nothing happens when I press any button on my remote. Everything functions perfectly if I boot into explorer then launch xbmc. Can anything be done to fix that?
