vfrinterceptor,

You might try asking your question on a site called xcpus.com

That is a group of people that are hardware enthusiasts that may already have your answer.

Xcpus.com

or

Xtremecpus.com

It is a great site with good people.. If you are running Vista 64bit version then likely you will fit right in :)

Also, don't be afraid to register.. The site is basically the replacement for what Toms Hardware used to be.

I am the Consumer Electronics Guru for the site (think editor/reviewer) :)

Or, try the DSDL section here, our windows guy is pretty good with these issues...

How so?
Did you post up in the DSDL section?
I have never seen one of these issues go unsolved...

This is risky, but if you have a prolific cable you could try the XP 64-bit drivers here:
