I searched everywhere but couldnt find the anwser.

I got a compaq V2000 laptop and a HP remote, it looks like this

I know this remote works because it came from a computer that basically has the SAME exact parts but the only thing is I never setup a remote before.

I'm confused. Are you looking for help setting it up? Are you looking for drivers for your laptop/OS?

HP/Compaq probably has some software or a driver that goes with the receiver. Check their website. Also, check the device manager on your computer to make sure that you even have a receiver.

It should be the same as setting up any peripheral device. What's best for you to do though is check HP's website for the laptop model number and see if the laptop you're using does in fact come with a remote. If it does, then head on to the driver section. Have to do some self troublshooting dude.
