Brian,

Unfortunately the keyboard needs the receiver from the standard MCE remote.
Haven't found a source for the receiver on its own. It won't work with some
of the other built in IR receivers like those on Silverstone cases either.

Did the keyboard come it it's own Ir reciever?  Or do you need the one
that comes with the remote?

Cheers
