No it is for 32bit! There is no 64-Driver for Ferrari 5000 until now!

The second: It´s no Vista-Driver!!! Only Windows, maybe it could work (only maybe)!!!

Sweet! One down and one to go. I have had 2 problems with my Acer 8200. First it wouldn't read a mini SD in the card reader(it does now thanks to this driver) and the second is getting A2DP to work with the built in bluetooth drivers.

I have been using 1.0.3.6 64bit XP driver with Vista64 and it seemed to be fine until i tried a 2GB SD card - it wouldn't recognise it properly and had ghost files on it after formatting (some space used up).

I found a 64bit driver of 2.0.0.0 which works flawlessly now with Vista64 and ReadyBoost works correctly on my 2GB SD. I'm not sure if there are later (2.0.0.7 seems to be the latest 32bit driver) but it seems a lot of manufacturers are behind in creating a 64-bit driver for this device...

You can find it here http://www.bouncingtigger.net/techstuff/dv5210/

Many thanks to the hoster - that file means i now have a perfect Vista64 install on my Ferrari 4005 WLMI

I'm using Vista64, and when I try to use readyboost with my 2gig Sandisk SD card, it tells me the card doesn't have the performance characteristics required to be used for readyboost...what card are you using?

I'm using a Corsair 133x 2gig SD card - i chose the fastest i could find deliberately to ensure it would work - ReadyBoost reports about 6.5MB/s read and 3MB/s write. But like i said I only just got it working with the 2.0.0.0 drivers.

Have you found any benefit to using readyboost? I had a one gig flash drive plugged in for a while, but couldn't discern or prove any benefit and unplugged it....curious. I haven't checked it, but I heard some say gaming slowed down using that feature. Anyone do any benchmarks?

I got a Acer Aspire 3680, which has the same Texas Instrument Flash Media, and the driver (Card Reader TI Driver 2.0.0.6q for windows vista) I downloaded from Acer did not work. However, the site provided by Kaveman (http://www.bouncingtigger.net/techstuff/dv5210/) does provide the working driver for my Aspire 3680 (I used the Texas Instruments PCIxx21 SD Card Reader driver). So if anyone has windows vista x64 on Aspire 3680 and needs a driver for the Flash Media, GO FOR IT.
