Frank,

Drivers not included in the base OS are the responsibility of the hardware
vendors to product.
You should contact them for their statement on availability of divers fo the
x64 Microsoft operating systems.
Are you SATA driver x64 drivers and are they the final production ones?
Most drivers currently available are Beta drivers produced for the Release
Candidate builds of the x64 OS. Check back with the manufacturer for the
latest final release drivers.
