While I think the MyBlaster is one of the best (and easiest) ways to go, they are no longer available new and are very
hard to find even used.
I think you are best off trying to get the hardware you have to work.

There is nothing worse than the remote control not working if you have no intentions
of using a wireless keyboard. I tried multiple remote control options and while most
worked they did not always work well. I finally decided to purchase the windows XP
media center edition remote control + receiver pack. It can be found for between $30
and $40 and it just works. It also has two IR transmitters that can be used to send
IR codes to a cable box or satellite box. It is a bit pricey but it just works.
