well... i got a tower from CompUSA when they closed. It was built as a server with 2 X 250G hdd's, had a Pentium D m/b, DVD DL Writer, massive case with alot of fans, a useless floppy, but nice over all... problem was people scavenged it and took the memory, video card, and processor?!?! i got the whole thing for like $140?!?! went to NewEgg and got a Pentium D 3.0GHz, GeForce 7300GT, 2G RAM, and a DVDROM for all around $400... so for $500 total I got a nice mo-sheen!

ran XP x86 on it first. tried a dual boot openSUSE linux setup and it f'ed it up... lot the XP partition?!? when i couldn't restore it, i upgraded to the x64 version... but now only have one problem... my security camera capture card from Digivue is not supported?!?!

Anyone know a good place for 3rd party drivers, if there are any for this thing?!?! It's an EDV-XV425 DVR SYSTEM... worked well in XP x86?!?!

ciao!

They just didn't border with 64bit drivers, it seems to work with 32bit Vista for example.

- Moving this topic to the XP 64bit section, it could be that the 32bit drivers could be forced to work on 64bit.

Hi Jagered - I've found that a lot of Vista x64 Drivers will work quite happily with XP x64. If you download the Vista x64 driver and then extract the files into a folder you can quite often then just install them manually by pointing the 'add new hardware' wizard to that location rather than using the setup program that comes with them as they usually have inbuilt OS detection routines that prevent this.

You may have some joy doing that fella, good luck!
