I need this remote just to turn on and shutdown my laptop (Windows 7 64bit). Can it turn a laptop on and shut it down

It can shut it down but, It can not turn a computer on at least it won't for me.

It is designed to work with Media Center. And it can act as a pointer (mouse) so it can be used to turn off the computer (as you would with a mouse) but it cannot turn on a off computer. In my case, it can awake a sleep computer, but not a hibernating computer.

Hi, is not a universal remote as you think. Only the D-pad, and the tree bottons above it and the power work on IR, the rest of the remote is RF. The current use I found for that is to turn on the tv, select the source and then use the RF to control the pc. If you just want to power on multiple devices it can be programmed for each button speratley but you'll have very limited to 0 control of your other devices

Yes. Maybe once a month it will freeze. Simply hold the power on button for about 30 - 45 seconds and it forces a reboot of the remote.

No. You will have to connect this remote lock to a power supply and an on/off switch which you'll have to get separately.

you mean to stay ruining after you turn it off? you can enable remote start before shutting off key and let it run, will auto shutdown after time, mines 12 min, or you can shut down with remote... I'll check to see if it has turbo timer though, doubtful, I had a separate timer on my turbo car... different alarm though

No, The remote is only for Radio and CD, the remote also does NOT turn the unit ON, it only turns it off.

There is no indication. You can plug a radio or a lamp when you are setting up your system though to make sure it working properly. I think the master/control device you have isn't completely turning off. I use my television, and I had to turn off the quick start up feature to get this to work. If whatever device you're using has something like that, then it won't sense that the master device has ever shut down, so there will always be power to the controlled outlets. Hope this helps.

If you want your laptop to come on at the same time everyday YES there is a way to do that without hitting the power button. No one seems to mention this. Go to Energy Saver in Sys Prefs then into Schedule. Do nothing but set a time to WAKE. Completely shut off the laptop (not sleep nor spin down just plain OFF). Plug in power cord and of course make sure power cord is plugged into an AC source.At the desired time laptop will fully boot!Now I wish there was a remote that could turn it off without the power button.

The remote works the Power Point on the Laptop. If you have a projector connected it will do one or both however you set it up.

When I was looking for a remote I just put the name and model number in the search box and it showed me the one that went with the model I have and I ordered it. I took a chance that it would work and it did the first time I tried it. I did not have to program it. Good Luck

No It only turns off when you turn off TV , pretty stupid I know, anyway what you can do is turn on the tv hit "tools" on the TV remote and select on the screen "Anynet+" followed by "Receiver ON" , I know it's a couple extra step but at least you don't need to get up or use two remotes to turn everything onHope this help
