What drivers are you looking for?

You will probably find bog standard XP drivers will work OK on most drivers, if not pay a visit to the manufacturers website.

You may find some on manufacturer's websites, but don't expect many to have 64-bit drivers. ATI has some beta drivers I believe, but haven't heard about many others. As the 64 bit Windows is still in beta and not due to be released for a while yet, You probably aren't going to find many.

Linuk is the only OS that will give you the full benefit of 64 bit processors.
