I have tried to install Vista 64 bit driver, but all the install files(more than 30times) that i tried doesn't seem to contain smwdm.sys, so the installation failed..

Installing XP 64x driver didn't also seem to work out as well.. When I tried to install them manually(after setting bcdedit -set nointegritychecks yes)I kept saying that it's not compatible driver..

Any ideas..? It is very frustrating..
