Just did a recognicense (sp?) mission to Best Buy. They had several HP notebooks with Vista running. None were "locked down" so I took a look at the SwSetup directories. All the drivers I looked at (including Conexant HD Audio) had x64 Vista drivers available! I asked if I could back the driver directory up to DVD, but the people on the salesfloor couldn't authorize it, and the idiot Geek Squad guy refused because he said the drivers wouldn't work. I argued with him for awhile, but he was clueless so I gave up. I think I'll go to a different Best Buy tomorrow and try to do it without anyone noticing, if HP doesn't get the drivers posted by then.

In the meantime, anyone who purchased an HP notebook today preloaded with Vista, if you want some major rep points, by all means zip or rar your SwSetup directory and post it somewhere, on Bittorrent or otherwise. Ideally, we'd need two different uploaders, one with an Intel system and one with an AMD system to do this. I know MANY people on here would be extremely grateful.
