| 785681 | 2009-06-25 05:04:00 | As the title says do 32 bit drivers work in 64 vista? | nedkelly (9059) | ||
| 785682 | 2009-06-25 05:06:00 | No 32 bit drivers dont work in ANY 64 bit version of windows | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 785683 | 2009-06-25 05:11:00 | ok so how do I get things to work that do not have 64 bit drivers? | nedkelly (9059) | ||
| 785684 | 2009-06-25 05:12:00 | If there aren't drivers, there aren't drivers, simple as that. You sure you've looked in the right places? What drivers are you looking for? |

| 785685 | 2009-06-25 05:16:00 | Oh nothing yet Im just installing my new pc (Check my sig) and want to make sure what would happen if I plugged something into my pc and there were no 64 drivers | nedkelly (9059) | ||
| 785686 | 2009-06-25 05:18:00 | I'm going to move up to 64bit Vista after my final exam tomorrow. I've already collected all the drivers that I need; all 64bit. These days most devices have 64bit drivers for them, don't worry. | qazwsxokmijn (102) | ||
| 785687 | 2009-06-25 05:19:00 | Yep, you're very unlikely to run into problems, 64bit support gets better every day, won't be too long before that's all we have. :) If you're worried, do what qaz has done and track all the drivers down before doing the install. |

| 785688 | 2009-06-25 05:19:00 | Thats ONE thing you SHOULD check, BEFORE you decide to go to 64 bit. The drivers. No 64 bit drivers, no go. If the mobo is recent, check the mobo manufacturer's site for the drivers. Be careful WHAT programs you install as well. Some dont work with 64 bit either. | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 785689 | 2009-06-25 07:16:00 | Most common HW has 64bit drivers these days. Except printers and scanners... |

| 785690 | 2009-06-25 10:09:00 | I always make sure I have the drivers I need to get to the internet, ethernet, wireless or mobo if integrated. Without those it can be very painful if you don't have a second computer to use to download the drivers you need! :stare: | Saucy (14844) | ||
