    I've only installed this on my desktop PC... but hopefully this'll help you out too.

    Most of the drivers for my PC were automatically installed by Windows 7. Anything that it couldn't find, I searched the web for. For example, I found beta Windows 7 drivers for my Creative Soundblaster X-Fi, and those worked fine.

    Now, this is relevant, as a few people have mentioned that Vista x64 drivers also work fine. The Vista x86 drivers for my Logitech G15 keyboard also worked fine under Windows 7.

    So see if you can find some Vista x64 drivers... they should do the job. :)
