Flirc doesn't respond

[mdav]

Hi,

Suddenly after several months with a perfectly working Flirc, it doesn't work anymore. The GUI says it's connected, but nothing happens when I press the buttons on the remote. I've tried to:

1. Load the configuration succesfully again. 

2. Record new keys succesfully. 

3. Unistall the program and the driver in the device manager. Then I installed it again and loaded the configuration succesfully. 

No luck when pressing buttons on the remote. What to do next? I'm on GUI 1.3.6 and firmware 3.6.

Thanks!

Please try plugging Flirc to a different USB port.

I've tried that, but I tried It again and now it's working with the old configuration file. Thanks. I can even put it back to the old USB port. Do you know if it's a Windows 7 or a Flirc issue?

This is a Windows issue. I've stumbled upon it several times myself. For some reason the HID keyboard filter driver is not being properly attached to the device and the keystroke events are not being properly propagated as keyboard events.
