I'm using the Full version of Vista now. It's out for certain vendors. Are we getting close to the release of the 64 bit signed drivers?
Regards,

Re: Vista x64 & driver signing
So would that mean that we're looking at 3 - 6 months before we can use our Track IR's with Vista x64, or are we already some way down that path...?
Re: Vista x64 & driver signing
We are currently looking into the "kernel" digital signatures required for Vista 64-bit.

Re: Vista x64 & driver signing
Not trying to dodge the question, just stating that it is being looked into.....
The way that MS does certifications for Vista, is completely different than they have been done in the past, so it is being looked into. I was doing research on it myself yesterday.
