Ok, i have a laptop with a broken screen that i removed the screen from and installed vista ultimate on. I want to use this as an MCE machine. My question is can i use the existing IR port on the laptop with say a harmony 880 remote and if so is there anything i need to do to set it up?

Thanks
 
IrDA is not the same thing as an IR receiver. Generally, your best bet is gonna be to find a remote + receiver combo for cheap and just use the receiver.
