A driver section has been added, does anyone know what it means by Windows
XP 64bit?....does this mean it is not intended for Windows XP Professional
SP2?

You need to install the latest UDP pack for Nforce (5.10) and a beta video
driver like this

do not install 64bit drivers under XP Pro/Home. This is a completely
different version of windows that was designed for 64bit processors (Intel
Itanium, AMD 64).

Windows XP is not 64 bit, there is a beta 64 bit XP out for testing - hence
the driver.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

There's a 64 bit beta version of Windows. It's for the AMD 64 bit cpu's that
are out now and the future 64 bit intel cpus. Don't try them on Windows XP.
