Look on the Specifications tab of the same page you posted here. If an
operating system is not listed then I would not count on the device working
in it.

Hi Alex,

From the specifications tab:

"Windows Vista Home Premium or Ultimate (32 Bit versions) or Windows XP
Media Center Edition 2005"

Note that it specifically lists the 32-bit versions, likely meaning that it
does not have the necessary 64-bit drivers.

Hi,

As the website says this under System Requirements



- Windows Vista Home Premium or Ultimate (32 Bit versions) or Windows
XP Media Center Edition 2005

I wouldn't use it on Vista x64

Forget it. Pinnacle has no support for 64-bit TV Tuners. There are some
beta drivers, but the application you need to enable your card in Media
Center is still 32-bit. That's the main reason I'm stuck with 32-bit
myself...
Go Hauppauge, there are some 64-bit models there
