WinXP64 on MacPro

[Walli]

Hi,

I have a Mac Pro here, Bootcamp "offering MacOSX and WinXP64

The WinXP64 installation works fine - except of audio and ethernet.

Does anybody know, what drivers I need to download to get usable ethernet and sound?
Its a Dual Xeon Quadcore Macpro.

best,
Walli

just found it myself, PROEM64T.exe from Intel works for ethernet.

Now I have to find something for sound ;-)

I was not aware that they supported XP64 Bit... which is probably the route of your problems :)... We have no end of problems trying to find drivers for our 64Bit XP Machines!... funnily... we are gonna cross grade to Mac Pros as we have such grief with them.

check the section here for more info... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boot_Camp_(software) (paste the whole link including the bit in brackets)

might be worth making sure you have the latest copy of BootCamp...

for what its worth.... I have been really impressed with Parallels Desktop for running AutoCad.... might be worth demo'ing it if you get no joy with BootCamp

found on Intel: AUD_ALLOS_5324_5322_PV_Realtek, don´t know if its the correct or best one, but it worked for me - so now I have audio also and just wait for 64bit version of Vray ;-)
