Not keen on a whole system rebuild, maybe when I have a couple of days free, but right now, I reckon I'll just keep troubleshooting it.
I might try reinstalling all the drivers for the remote
I see! Then you must've done something or installed something stopped it from working. What keyboard are you using? When XBMC is on and on your keyboard press "Win-Alt-Enter" if XBMC does not respond to it then its not a remote issue or a registry issue! because I already checked your registry settings and the settings was working fine with your remote aleady in the past. And if it is not Eventghost, then that leaves only two possibilities I think:
1- Windows Keyboard layout is messed up! What language are you using? As sometimes keys can differ with different key layouts!
2- Your Windows installation is messed up or an application on your PC is stopping the Green button combo from reaching XBMC !
I hope this might narrow down your troubleshooting

I do not use harmony remotes so I would not be able to tell you how to do that but some one in here might be able to do so. :-)

This works, but I thought this Registry edit is for controlling XBMC in the Background like it's possible with Eventghost.
No this does not control XBMC in the backround! You have to use EventGhost and its the only solution that will let you use XBMC in the background. This setup is supposed to be used on a true HTPC, thats why the Green Start Button brings XBMC back to focus, just in case it loses it! If you want to uninstall XBMCCustomregis then use the same setup file you used to install and sellect "Uninstall" option.
I hope this helps,
