Bob:

Take a look at
http://download.microsoft.com/download/a/f/7/af7777e5-7dcd-4800-8a0a-b183365
65f5b/best_practices.doc (and also other Microsoft pages dealing with Vista
64) and you'll see that only these 3 types of drivers need to be signed in
Vista 64:

	- kernel mode drivers
	- drivers acccessing protected media components
	- drivers marked as "boot start"

User mode drivers are never mentioned as needing to be signed, at least in
the documents I've seen while spending hours slogging through this stuff.

It is my understanding that EVERYTHING needs to be signed in Vista 64.
That is too bad.  You should see XP64 with multiple cores run the new driver
on the firewire.
