Sorry, no.

We are using the generic Cypress EZ-USB driver from their development
kit and it's 32-bit only. Development kits for the more recent Cypress
devices contain no 64-bit drivers either. I'm afraid we have to wait
for Windows Vista before 64-bit drivers become widely available (for
any devices).

The Windows Server 2003 DDK has a 64-bit compiler, and we have the
Cypress EZ-USB driver source code. It's very unlikely, however, that
we could build a working 64-bit driver using this source code without
significant modifications. And I'm unwilling to even try this simply
because I don't have a 64-bit processor (or OS) that I could use for
testing.

The parallel port will require a 64-bit driver as well. (I don't know
what the problem is with Win2k though.)

I know the Delta 44 has a bets 64-bit driver, but I can't speak for the
stability of using it on a 64-bit OS.  It loaded on my 32-bit OS with my
64-bit processor and works without any problems.

PowerSDR shouldn't be a problem unless Windoze thunking has problems.

You'll find the biggest hindrance with Windoze 64-bit O/Ss is the lack
of driver support.  This is the main reason I have resisted the upgrade
to date.

Subject: [Flexradio] Power SDR under Windows-XP 64bit

Hello to all,

on my new pc I want to run WindowsXP 64Bit with
Power-SDR,SDR-1000,Delta44 and USB-interface-cable. Has anyone ever
tried this out ? Is there a 64bit driver for the USB-cable available ? I
tried it with parallel-cable but this doesn't work here even when I
start the system with Windows2000 OS.
