Yes thats right, Ive also got this old Winfast analogue TV tuner card, thats good also for analogue video capture, alas upon checking its website, the next model up has Vista64 drivers, not this one, and also the 350D camera wont work with Vista64 either, even with the latest software from Canon, ironically though the 450D works perfectly under Vista.

EDIT:
Apparently Adobe have no plans yet to make a x64 version of Photoshop anyway. The 32 version runs fine, I didnt need to put it in compatability mode or anything, just install and run.. I even have an old MS works for Win 95 installed and running! I use that because it has an easy to use envelope printing function.

I paid $1800 for the board, CPU and ram, and Vista64bit ultimate OEM from Mwave.com.au. They said I could purchase the cleaper OEM version if buying the hardware as well. I bought the case, PSU, VGA and drives from the local computer markets we have here.
Looking at a similar system from dell That of course includes a monitor and stuff.
Ive not done too bad especially considering as Dell are fairly competitive nowdays, and its fun getting the bits in and building a system. The motherboard is so new that theres reviews saying its only just becoming available now. review of it here

My old faithful Athlon 32OO now lives in the garage, to be used as a 2nd pc. Its 5 years old, and has been on for about 16 hours a day. 7 days/week for all of that time. I trust the new one with its good cooling will give me the same service
