I just got the Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe and the 2 NICs apparently dont support the Beta Win x64 OS.
Does anyone have 64bit drivers for these nForce4 built-in Gbit MAC w/ external Marvell PHY or Marvell PCI Gbit LAN controller?
or does anyone know of any NICs that support 64bit OS?
...or does anyone know if im just doing something wrong? :p
OS says drivers dont have support, the status shows connected @ 400Mbps wheather its pluged in or not, and ASUS support says the drivers arnt supported yet.
Thanks in advance!

Sure enough, you did not think about visiting nvidia web site, as they make the chipset for your board and check there for 64bits drivers ...

And for Marvell, have you been at their website?

I had network working with the 64 bits drivers from nvidia on my nforce3 board with win64

I once installed xp64 on my machine, but I didnt find drivers for my scanner, printer and some other thing. It's been a while and did not look back for drivers for my stuff at manuf web site since yesterday for my sound card and no drivers yet.. So I'll wait a bit longer to reinstall it.

You got your drivers from there? This is where I got mine and lan was working well.

well, just thinking, better get win xp for now, as there is not that many drivers for printers and others stuff, so you'll end up like me, a computer that is just running..no printing, no scanning, no sound, no multimedia( capture, tv,..), ...
