My motherboard (Shuttle AN50R) has the same function bult in. I enabled it in the bios and it didn't work either. I decided to read the manual for the motherboard and found out that I need to attach a 6-pin infrared device to the JP8 Header to make use of it.

With that said; I took the liberty of looking at the manual for your motherboard and found the same thing. Here is the link for the manual of your motherboard:

I didn't know where to find such a device so I just ordered an Infrared device that plugs into my USB from Newegg. I just ordered it a couple of days ago so I don't know how it's going to work out for me yet.

Good Luck,
