MCE remote with Mac Mini IR receiver?

[bogphanny]

I've recently installed Vista on my Mac Mini to be used solely as a Media Centre. Everything has gone exactly to plan, though the only bump in the road I have encountered is attempting to use a MCE remote with the standard Mac Mini IR receiver. In its current state, it simply doesn't work.

Does anyone know of a way to utilise the inbuilt Mac Mini IR receiver with a MCE remote?

It should be doable using HIP though I've never gotten around to trying it myself, here's an MCE remote HIP faq that should help.

I know the current Boot Camp drivers map some of the MCE remote keys to iTunes, I'm not sure if that'll cause any problems.
