I now have a XP64 with 8GB all working perfect, all hardwares and software works in ways that I have always wanted. Sadly the only thing that wouldnt work is my TV card (Cinergy 2400i DT), manufacture is of no help even though they supply XP64 drivers. So I am looking at another card thats well supported under XP64, Leadtek WinFast DTV1000, I also have a Leadtek WinFast DTV2000H which I cant find in the pile of junk here, they are both supported by XP64, but my concern is more to do with the amount of memory, I read something a while back that TV cards are not happy on anything with more than 4GB, does any one know if this is the case before I splash out on yet another card ? Many thanks |

I had the same configuration (XP64, 8GB) and problem (driver installed but failed to load on boot, manufacturer was no help) with a Leadtek PCI-e display adapter (Quadro FX 3500). Wording in the mobo manual made me suspect PCI-e bus timing so I got a different brand of mobo and the display adapter worked. |

I had the same cinergy card, I am now using one made by a company called blackgold. I run Vista 64 with 8gb ram, and they have a driver for 4gb+ ram. |

My Leadtek DTV1000S has no problems with 8GB under x64 Vista. The latest WinFast PVR2 2.0.3.7 doesn't work for me and some others. It includes a new ArcSoft audio codec. The older WinFast PVR2 2.0.2.40 is fine. I think the over 4GB problem affected mainly Hauppauge cards.
