64bit Compatible Network Card

I recently tried to set up a wireless network to share my broadband connection between 2 computers. However I have a little problem, One of the PCs has Win XP Pro 64bit. I couldn't find a driver to get the NIC to work with 64bit Win XP.
Are there any recommendations for a NIC that is compatible with 64bit Win XP.
Thanks in advance.
 
Well, are you sure the 32-bit drivers won't work? They should do, A64s can run 32bit code just fine... what drivers have you tried?
 
I was going to buy a Buffalo Tech wireless router with two PCI adapter cards and after going to their website and not seeing any mention of xp64 drivers.. I emailed them and they replied within the hour saying they had no xp64 drivers currently and didn't know when they would be available.

as for the link above.. I'm not sure I'm reading it well but it's saying it's likely that 32bit drivers would still work on xp64 ?

so can anyone confirm if the 32 bit drivers for this PCI card model # WLI2-PCI-G54S works on xp64 ?

Wow! Sorry, a typo, it should be Would Not Work with 32bit.

Of the Buffalo Wireless Devices, only the USB Dongle works with x64.

if you want wireless pci card that work in 64BIT Windows then try to find a card with an Atheros chipset.
