Mate, you are making more work for yourself running Windows XP 64 or whatever, the driver support is suppose to be shitty anyway.
Wait until more people are bothered, then you might get some drivers

yer... but more games etc are starting to be written for x64 now, it would be a shame not to take advantage of it
Driver support is poop
or i could wait for vista 64bit i guess.
Anyone seen the new Vista Homepage its quite funky

Im wondering if your able to tell me if you have a decent brand wireless card which is winXP x64 bit compatible? (i.e the vendor supplies a x64 bit driver). I have just upgraded to this OS and the dlink card i have is not currently supported.

Bart, all i can say is Typical!
I tried Windows XP 64 on my laptop but couldn't find one driver that i needed at all I really cannot be bothered to put it on my Desktop to find out what's needed 
I'm just going to wait for Vista and then put that on my laptop. Not going to put in on the desktop until they bring out the first service pack as i use that system mostly. Windows XP was so unreliable when it first came out, kept hanging
