    I've tired 3 old PCI Wifi G cards with W7 64 and none work properly. I can get them to work with W7 32 but not 64. Seems like theres newer revisions of thecards for W7 32/64. None of other drivers work XP 32/64, Vista 32/64 I've tried them all. Curiously the default drivers with W7 itself seem very old.

    Wondering what cards ogther people are using.

    When you get them working in windows 7 x86 what is the device called? Once you get the device name it will be a lot easier to find the correct device driver.
    Also worth noting is if the device has WHQL certification then it must have both x86 and x64 drivers.

    They probably aren't WHQL.

    Any suggestions of one that are?
