Razer deathadder and vista 64

[plion]

I wanted to try something new, because I've always used logitech. Anyways got 3 questions.

1.) Are there vista 64 drivers for the deathadder?



2.) Signed drivers or do I need press f8 and disable signed driver detection at every boot?


3.) Anything else I need to know? I've always used logitech so I'm pretty clueless, but the feel on it at bestbuy was pretty amazing compared to my g5.



- I placed an order for one but I can still cancel.

says Vista 32 and 64, interestingly they also claim to support XP 64...I think they even have Mac OSX drivers for the DA...

Thank you! can't believe I missed that.

apparently the deathadder works better without drivers installed? I just upgraded the firmware on the actual mouse and dont use any DA specific drivers.

You don't need the drivers, but installing them will give you access to change the polling rate (granted, once this is set, it will retain that setting with or without drivers until you change it again on a computer with drivers installed), reprogram the buttons (including macros, media commands, dpi, etc...), as well as give you on-the-fly sensitivity adjustment options. The drivers won't make the mouse worse.
