I installed the OEM version of XP-64 on my home PC. I had downloaded 64-bit
drivers for my motherboard, SATA and graphics card before I attempted the
installation and had no issues.

HOWEVER. Now that it is installed, I feel like I did when I ran Linux. 80%
of my apps run without any problem...but lack of driver support for my
printers, webcams, etc. has been difficult. My secure jump drive is useless
from home. THAT's scary.

I did get my Sony Cybershot T-33 working...as wells as a few apps that the
manufacturers said are "not supported."

My questions...

I'm about to add a second BFG 6800 ultra...and don't seem to be able to find
definitive information about...but is anyone succesfully running an SLI setup
on XP 64?

My Samsung 550N color laser printer is due to show up any day. Anyone have
a way to get that working?

All-in-all, it's rock solid and flies right along. The full version blows
the RC away.

AMD FX-55
2 GB Corsair Pro
512 MB BFG 6800 Ultra
(4) 73GB WD Raptors

And a bunch of hardware that isn't supported by XP 64 (And I have purchased
the OEM version)

No SLI drivers yet, but promised soon, last I heard. Samsung -- nothing from
them at all at this point. On the other hand, it does postscipt so you should
be able to get at least basic functionality out of it.

Planet AMD64 has just posted Nvidia drivers for SLI support. Forceware 7680.

Might be time to install another card. Any word on Riddick and SLI?
