Remote control cinema system, how can i turn it on without the remote?? Please help?

I have an expensive 5.1 cinema surround sound system connected to the PC, but it can only be turned on via a remote control, i had a big house party 2 nights ago and the cigarette lighter sized remote control has disappeared, is there any way to turn on items like this without the remote, i have tried all manner of button combinations on the 3 buttons on there, 2 for volume, and one for bass boost, but no joy? I mean who the hell designs these bloody systems, makes me so angry, i dont think i'm goin to find the remote control, i've torn the flat apart, no sign of it ... any help would be much appreciated

1. you can get it from the manufaturer, but that will cost you thew the noise you could by a universal one from any store in the world and that should work, unplug it 1st and then try hitting all of the buttons, it could just be a bad cycle
2. I have a suggestion for you...check out the Harmony remote by Logitech. It is really cool and is Universal and works virtually anything that has a remote. You can put you entire entertainment system on it as well as Xbox, lights, and celing fans. If it has a remote it can control it all. Good Luck!
