Yeah this was no more in evidence when i took the plunge to have my system wiped after a year of XP64 Bit incompatibilty.
I bought a logitech webcam 5000 ( an awesome bit of kit webcam wise)
spent countless times emailing them about xp64 bit support only to be ignored, went on forums posing the question about 64bit support only to be told it cost thousands to write a driver etc
Gave up and went back to XP32 ( after spending £50 on a webcam with no support )
Cost nothing to switch back as i had the original 32bit CD from a previous system.
Got the webcam running a treat, went round to mates that also had 64bit XP and told him what i'd done.
Thought it'd be better to download him the latest 32bit driver for the webcam before i wiped his system, went to the download section of the logitech downloads site in Novemember 2006 and guess what greeted me?
A 64 bit XP driver and a vista driver
grrrrrrrrr
