64-bit Drivers for XP or Vista

I just bought 4bg RAM for my santa rosa macbook pro and would like to install the 64-bit version of either xp or vista to take advantage of the added RAM. Does anyone know the status of the 64-bit drivers for macbook pro's? if apple hasn't released them, i can probably download them from intel's site. what kind of mobo, audio, lan, etc. does a 2.2ghz macbook pro have?

This should help - it helped me

I am running a full 64-bit Vista Ultimate on this MBP (S-R)
I installed it via BC1.3b and Tiger and got it working by downloading these drivers. Actually only the networking was not initially working.
I am now using Leopard and "upgraded" the drivers with the Leopard DVD. I did not notice any difference but I suspect that Vista ignored any driver that was inappropriate, so AFAIK, it's still 100% 64-bit, and it runs like a charm.
Is it just good Karma? But I have had none of the problems others seem to have, either with Leopard, BootCamp or Vista. Some minor "glitches" that we all expect. Safari used to crash in Tiger, so what's new?
Any other questions, let me know. I'll check back.

  • Where can I find Vista 64-Bit drivers for the Satellite A100-049?

    I currently run Vista Home Premium SP1 32-Bit and do so because there appears to only be 32-Bit drivers on Tosiba's website:
    [http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/vista_drivers.jsp?macId=&mode=allMachines&userOS=& action=search&selCategory=2&selFamily=2&selSeries= 153&selProduct=700&selOS=2]
    Where can I find Vista 64-Bit drivers for the Toshiba Satellite A100-049?
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply.
    That's rubbish. Vista 64-bit runs fine with 2Gb and my laptop supports up to 4Gb.
    We'll never move on to 64-Bit if companies don't provide drivers.
    I'll look at those sites. I've had trouble installing nVidia drivers from nVidia website.
    I have to use the one provided by Toshiba.
    Hopefully I won't find this when trying 64-Bit. My plan is to go 64-Bit with Windows 7 so no rush just yet.
    As I understand it Vista drivers will work with Windows 7.
    Thankfully when I reinstalled Vista 32-Bit not long ago using an OEM from Technet I only need 2-3 drivers from Toshiba website, most of it they give to download you don't need at all.
    Thanks again.
    p.s - They do offer 64-Bit drivers for my network card though.

  • Satellite A300D with Vista 64-bit - Drivers for Conexant High Definition

    Hi,
    I have Satalite A300D-15B AMB 64-bit notebook with Vista 64-bit installed. After I have installed Vista, it automatically took the audio drivers for sound card, but Dolby didn't work.
    I tried to install the drivers from toshiba, it fails.
    Can someone guide me how to install the Vista 64-bit drivers for Conexant High Definition Audio please......
    regards,
    Ganesh

    Hello Ganesh
    Sorry but this notebook model is not supported for Vista 64-bit and I don't know what driver installation are you writing about.
    What you can try is to download and install THIS driver.
    This is driver for Satellite A300 but this notebook has the same sound card as your Satellite A300D - Conexant CX20561.
    Please post the results.

  • WinXP 64 Bit Drivers for T61 Thinkpad (7661-G28)

    I installed Vista64 on an additional drive and was constantly running into application crashes as well as what apppears to be system pauses when a window was in focus.   Things just froze and if you brought up task manager they would start responding again.  I installed windows Vista Ultimate (SP1) for this. I was trying to take advantage of all my memory in the system 4GB brecause I am trying to setup a demo disk with Virtual Workstation so I need the memory for the virtual environment. 
    Anyway I gave up (after learning about how to remove the new Vista boot loader on a dual boot machine) and decided to go back to 64 bit XP to get a stable system.  The problem with this is of course the lack of driver support for 64 bit XP on thinkpads.  I have read  most of the posts in the forum on 64 bit options for XP and I have tried all of the suggestions for them.  I still do not have but one drivers active.  I was able to get the Ethernet driver working but still can not load the wireless (4965AG), audio(SoundMax Digital HD AUdio), SM Driver, or video (Intel 965 Chipset) drivers.  Has anyone had any luck with a model T61 and 64 bit drivers for Windows XP(64)?
    Any help is appreciated.

    i've never tried before but my personal opinion, it won't work.

  • Windows 7 64-bit drivers for HP ScanJet 6200c

    Hello HP,
    Will you be releasing 64-bit drivers for the ScanJet 6200c? 
    Regards, Dean.

    Vuescan worked beautifully and without a hitch on Window 7 64 Home Premium.
    The price was $39.99. It provided integration with my apps such as Word 2003, Photoshop, Dreamweaver and others.
    The Vuescan interface is acceptable.
    Definitely my pick over yet another uncessary hardware purchase.

  • How do I download Windows 7 64 bit drivers for my new MacBook Air (Mid 2011) from a Windows 7 PC?

    How do I download Windows 7 64 bit drivers for my new MacBook Air (Mid 2011)? I have already formated the HD and preformed a clean install of Windows 7. Perhaps I did this too early. I have read I need to install the drivers from my OS X DVD, however, OS X Lion does not come on a DVD! I've also read that I can download OS X Lion from the App Store and burn it to a DVD, however, all I have are Windows PCs which don't support the Mac App Store.
    Is there no way for me to download these drivers from a Windows PC?  I know they exist.  However, you are supposed to download them through Boot Camp in OS X when you are creating a new Windows 7 installation.  I'm I stuck?

    I am pretty disappointed in the lack of documentation.
    This is the Apple Support page for Boot Camp:
    http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
    No mention anywhere of Lion, of 4.0/4.01
    In the past, 10.6.6+ was suppose to - and sometimes did - provide for a download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant program, in order to save them to flash or such (that should be about 1GB, too large for CD). Some macs req'd a USB-DVD or other driver that was needed pre-install of Winidows
    You don't install Apple drivers until after Windows is installed otherwise,
    It is possible for me, with a tower, to run w/o needing any drivers from Apple. But with laptops, mini, you do need some drivers from Apple for graphics, internet, wireless, SMC support.
    And right now, loading any Apple support Tech Note articles is very very slow.
    People keep asking why Apple can't post 3.0 or 4.0 like they do the updates. Only logic is to force t he download from inside OS X or from an OS X DVD. Otherwise would be here, and avoid all the trouble. they aren't of use on a PC, and any PC motherboard vendor does post their support software for download.

  • F3507g 64 bit drivers for Windows 7 RTM - where can i find them.

    thanks in advance.

    The reason that threadjacking is frowned on (as mentioned in the terms use which you can read by clicking the link to the right on this page) is for the most part a practical one:
    By starting your own thread your problem can get individual attention, focussed on your particular set of circumstances.
    By joining somebody else's older thread it becomes tricky to answer more than one question at the same time, and can lead to confusion for both parties.
    So if you don't mind the minor inconvenience, please start your own thread (in the correct forum) so we can get to grips with your particular problem. Please include details of your computer and operating system.

  • Need Vista 64-bit drivers for Satellite Pro P100

    Hello,
    I have one question about Drivers for Vista 64bit version. I have a notebook Satellite Pro P100 and search in the drivers catalogue and find only a BIOS update for 64-bit systems.
    But where can I find the Hardware drivers for 64-bit versions?
    Regards
    Mischa

    The 4 GB RAM issue is a known issue at the toshiba helpdesk (yes I had it and called) it's due to a problem programming the BIOS to handle more then 3GB.
    As for your drivers I can tell you in advance you can find everything except SD Card driver and the microphone jack in plug support driver.
    I'm sorry I forgot where I found those but the rest is out there (you can also try installing 32-bit version for the most).
    Ow and the BIOS - update for 64 bit doesn't work for me so don't count on it to much lol

  • Windows 8/8.1 32/64 bit Drivers for Satellite P100/P105 Users

    I made an original post with my now ancient Satellite P105-S9722 back in 2009 & 2011 for Windows 7 64-bit drivers. Windows 7 Drivers for P100/105 Systems
    Now that I have newer systems, I have experimented loading Windows 8 & 8.1 in my P105-S 9722 system.  Wanted to share some observations and any issues I came across.
    I have listed here some basic drivers you can use for your P100/P105 systems for Windows 8 and 8.1 and 32/64-bit to work.  Many of these listed are from other users, but there may be some additional drivers many may not know about.  I can't guarantee that all of these will make your system work 100%, but hopefully this will make your upgrade just a little quicker & easier.
    Before using these driver, I recommend you do a fresh install of Windows 8 or 8.1 32 or 64-bit regardless if you are using XP, Vista or 7 32 or 64-bit systems.
    Now I did use an installation DVD instead of a flash drive since you may need to add additional features to make certain programs work.
    After installing the Operating System (OS), immediately go to Programs and Features in Control Panel .  Make sure to turn on the .NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0).  You will need this to install some of the Toshiba utilities.
    Many of the native drivers for Windows 8 & 8.1 will automatically be installed.  The wifi driver should work.  I am using a Sparklan GN-WS30N 802.11n using Ralink RT2860 chipset that works in 8 & 8.1.
    SOUND CARD: The biggest issue of Windows 8 & 8.1 32/64-bit is that there is no sound.  The old Audio 4.8.0.0 driver is the only driver that still works in Windows 8 & 8.1.  There are much newer versions, but for some reason, the old driver works the best.
    1) Download the driver.
    2) right click the file to extract it to a folder of the same name (do not double-click as the automatic installation will fail)
    3) double-click on folder Audio4.8.0.0, then double-click again on subfolder Audio4.8.0.0 if present
    4) double-click on folder BD1-BH1
    5) double-click on folder VXP64
    6) recommend to double-click on file BD16HAa.inf to check if your sound Hardware ID is listed under [Conexant.NTAMD64], should be HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5047&SUBSYS_1179FF31
    7) close BD16HAa.inf file if opened in step 6, then simply double-click Setup64.exe
    8) restart system (although audio may work right away, always a good idea)
    See Audio 4.8.8.0.zip Download on Bottom of post
    SYNAPTIC TOUCHPAD:  If your P100/P105 has a dual Synaptic touchpad like mine, the driver does work in WIndows 8/8.1, BUT you still need the utility to make it work.
    Download: Toshiba Touchpad
    Here's the thing with the Toshiba file, when you save it or run it, it unzips the folder into the TEMP folder.  When you go to run it, the main setup will work.  In case the autorun does not work, here's what you need to do:
    1) Change you folder selection so you can show hidden folders & files
    2) After unzipping the file, open C:\Users\"YOURNAME"\AppData\Local\Temp\Synantec Touchpad.temp
    3) Click on "Setup" icon to run the file. (This file worked just fine on my P105-S9722 machine)
    PCMCIA/Express Card/SD (TI) CARD READER - This driver will allow the PCMCIA, Express Card & SD Readers work normally on Windows 8/8.1. 
    There is issue with the Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Integrated FlashMedia Controller.  I did find a driver the does work:
    Download: Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Integrated Flashmedia Controller
    Nvidia Video Card - After loading the OS, the maximum resolution on the native drivers is only 1024 X 768.  In order to get the maximum resolution of 1440 X 900, a NVidia driver is required.
    Download: Nvidia GeForce Release 179
    Once this is loaded, use Windows Updates to download the most recent drivers.  Windows 8.1 definitely has a newer driver.  It is a good idea to download the NVidia GeForce Experience so that newer drivers can be installed: Nvidia GeForce Experience
    Fingerprint Reader (Biometrics Devices) - The Upek driver only goes up to Windows 7, but Windows 8/8.1 does have a native driver through AuthenTec that does work.  The Toshiba fingerprint utility will be needed in order to user the fingerprint reader.  The Toshiba Utility can be downloaded here:
    Upek Fingerprint Driver 5.8.0.4024
    The utility should work with the native driver.
    That's pretty much it for the basic drivers.  I did not include LAN or Wireless Drivers.
    Finally make sure the most recent Bios are installed v4.70: http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/support/do​​wnloads/sp100v470.exe
    There are attachments and links, but let me know if anyone is not able to download or use any of these links posted.
    Current Issues & Observations:  After I shut the computer down, when I open the screen, the computer automatically turn on.  I haven't figured that out yet, but I'm sure I'll post a fix in the near future.  The computer definitely boots much faster compared to Windows 7 and I've upgraded the older spinner drive with a Sata III SSD Drive.  Even with only 4GB of memory and the first generation Duo Core processor, P105-S9722 is still running well.
    I may do another post if I decide to try out WIndows 10, but for now, it's nice to know that even though the old P100/P105 systems do not support anything over Windows Vista, we can use the contempory software on a system almost 10 years old.
    Good luck.

  • 64 bit drivers for windows 7?

    hey guys.
    i want to install windows 7 64-bit on my macbook pro 17", i am familiar with the install process. but i need to know whether or not there is a 64-bit drivers available for windows 7?
    about 2 years ago or so i installed windows vista 64-bit but only to found out later there is no 64-bit drivers supported by apple (only 32-bit).

    You would have found that you can back then just copy the whole package into a folder and use /Apple/Drivers/BootCamp64 and that is true still today on "unsupported by 64-bit" Macs.
    BC 3.1 on 2006 Mac Pro is a big BSOD PITA so if something does work, use that.
    Disable (rename) AppleHFS and AppleMNT to disable the HFS feature though as one source of BSODs.
    Apple has a list of what Macs are not supported by Windows 7, another list of Vista 64-bit that are supported. Take all of it with a grain of salt (and shot of tequila).
