i want to go try out the 64-bit version of windows xp but the only thing thats stoping me is drivers for my wireless adaptor (linksys wirless g wusb54). i try to look for 64 bit drivers but couldn't find one. so im asking if there is another wireless adaptor that has 64-bit drivers?

If you get the Belkin F5D7000 you should be able to use these drivers from Ralink (they manufacture the chip used on the Belkin card) and that ought to work. Their 32bit drivers are better than Belkin's ones anyway and it is a very good card.

which version (i.e. chipset) have u got? i think there are 64 bit drivers for prism. when i got x64 i was worried about driver availability but so far everything works, even obscure stuff turns out to have 64 bit drivers somewhere. i made a dual boot with 32 bit xp but hardly ever use it

I have the RT2500 chipset and the Ralink drivers are good. I'm not sure if you mean a different version number though, the only think I know is it is model number F5D7000 with the RT2500. Hope this helps, and I'm suprised Linksys don't have 64bit driver support by now.
