Guys i am gaming at gateway 6860 fx using xp x64 bits and installed the 177.98 nvidia driver. gateway 6860 fx laptop runs games a lot more faster with xp x64 in comparison with Vista; for ex in devil may cry 4 i got 20 fps more with xp x64 in comparison to vista. The problem is that I have no sound because i did not found any working sound drivers for xp x64 bits, at the foruns out there i olny see the sound driver for xp 32 bits, but using this operating system we miss 1 gb of memory, cause it will olny recognise 3 gb from the 4gb in the system. Plaease guys Windows XP x64 bits version is the perfect gaming plataform for gateway 6860 fx, find some way for the sound to work, make a modded driver , do something please, please please!!!! I have some problems with the bluetooth also, using the wildcom driver updates, the drivers crash at xp x64. any solutions for this? hope you can help me pleaseeee!!!! Gime me the sound for xp x64!!!!!

...I don't think there is anything NBR can do about this. This is XP-64's main problem...lack of drivers, and it isn't going to be solved anytime soon with Vista64 being much more popular.
3GB is more than enough for most people, I suggest you consider getting a copy of XP 32 if you refuse to use Vista. -
If you need help, pm me.

This confused me slightly - how is getting a driver for this laptop pirated software ? Im not trying to be smart, just couldnt understand this statement.

PM "Dook", he is using XP 64 i think, and im sure he has everything working.

props goes to Tinman and RhinoXeros
its all in here but i'll just make it as short and clear as possible for our lazy joe...
# Download the IDT/SigmaTel Audio Driver from Gateway.
# Run D20253-001-001.exe
# Navigate to C:\cabs\D20253-001-001\HDAQFE\xpsp2\us\ and run kb888111xpsp2.exe to install the High Definition Audio Driver Package - KB888111.
# Download 92XXM4-10DM.INI and Sthda.ini
# Move 92XXM4-10DM.INI and Sthda.ini to C:\cabs\D20253-001-001\WDM\WinXP\, replacing the existing files.
# go to the C:\cabs\D20253-001-001\WDM\WinXP and edit the sthda64.ini file to include the following line under the [ Model ] :
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_111D&DEV_76B0=92XXM4-10DM.INI
Run setup.exe from C:\cabs\D20253-001-001
reboot and you're game -
didn't know they had xp 32 bit working right to start with...it was having that left volume higher than the right side issue.....
-
thats why i left XP behind....i had constant crashing issues, drivers not working, etc.
Vista 64 is great, and im really happy I swithced over. -
yeah...cant see why people keep saying xp is an upgrade. good...yes...upgrade to vista...no.

That's great info royk! You probably helped a ton of people whining about XP64bit compatibility. +rep
-
(speculation of course) but didn't the 6831 come with xp drivers tucked away in the restore partition? i remember finding xp drivers on there.
-
yeah i lost that disk...
-
as long as i wasn't crazy...that's all that matters...*LOL*
-

-
That guide didn't work for my XP pro x64
-

-
