The 3.02 drivers stopped working for me a fews weeks ago. Everytime I tried reinstalling them I got the error "x10net.dll failed to register".
I tried pretty much every fix online till the following worked for me.
1) Uninstall the 3.02 driver. You can keep your old plugins, EXCEPT THE ITUNES PLUGIN! That plugin has some problems that prevent the remote wonder software from working, took me hours to find this out! To be safe you can try renaming your Plugins folder until you get the remote working.
2) Install the 2.5 driver. You can get it from http://remotew.free.fr/drivers.htm
3) Reboot. Or just go to Device manager, right click on "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" then select "Scan for Hardware Changes". Saves having to reboot, but might not work for everyone.
4) If the Remote Wonder program still doesnt work then go to Device manager, then "Universal Serial Bus Controllers", then uninstall every device related to the remote (there might be 1 or 2). Then do a "Scan for Hardware Changes". This should now find only one device. Then right click on the new device then Update Driver. Then select "Install from a list..." then "Don't Search..." then find and select "ATI Wireless Remote Reciever V2.36".
5) Do a Ctrl-Alt-Del and kill ATIRW.exe
6) Try the Remote Wonder program again. You'll see the icon in your system tray if it works.
The above method worked for me, but then I decided to give 3.02 another shot. Same no icon crap happened again. Looks like 3.02 definately has a problem.
So I repeated the steps above, except for step 2), I used the 3.01 driver instead, which doesn't seem to have to same problems as 3.02. To find it do a search for "remote-wonder-3-01-0-0-english.exe". I found it from an open directory, I'm sure other places have it too.
You might need to "clean" out your C:\windows\Inf folder of all Remote Wonder files. I did this, but I'm not sure if its essential to the fix above. There's another post in this forum describing how to do it.
I hope this helps someone. ATI's crappy drivers really pissed me off for a while
