Hi Jagered - I've found that a lot of Vista x64 Drivers will work quite happily with XP x64. If you download the Vista x64 driver and then extract the files into a folder you can quite often then just install them manually by pointing the 'add new hardware' wizard to that location rather than using the setup program that comes with them as they usually have inbuilt OS detection routines that prevent this. You may have some joy doing that fella, good luck!

Hi people, I am also very worried about my unattended disc getting into the wrong hands. I work at a big university here in Manchester, England and so besides XP itself my DVD also has tons of extra software packages that install from RunOnceEX like Office 2k3, Project 2k3, Mathtype 5.2c, MATLAB 2k7 etc. All of these packages also have their respective license keys kicking around the DVD too and so although VERY useful it's quite a liablilty if I lost it! I've been hunting about for months now to try and find a way to protect my disc but as is said above there doesn't seem to be an easy way that has surfaced yet. I did find details of password protected Linux disks that can multi-boot to different ISOs files but as I have zero knowledge of Linux and was baffled by the terminology I had to give that a miss plus, that still wouldn't prevent people from extracting the files from the ISOs on the Linux disk either would it? What I was hoping is that there is some way of command-line mounting and booting an encrypted image file like Magic ISO's UIF format, anyone out there know if this would be even possible? Cheers.
