Is there a FULL list of 64-bit drivers for hardware manufactured before
Vi$ta is RTM?

Probably not. You will have to check with the manufacturers
individually. Someone may start a web page to post in
formation, but not guaranteed.

Manufacturers do not publish info about each other's device drivers so there
would never be such a list. The list of devices supported by Vista would be
the contents of the driver folder in Vista itself.

Doesn't the Windows Vista Hardware Compatibility List give you what you
need? I realize that it would be nice to also have a classic, flat "list"
as well, but the HCL is not bad. Note that you can confine the results to
those products that are logo-certified at either the Basic or Premium
levels. Of course, the list is expected to change somewhat rapidly as
hardware manufacturers continue to submit test results and have their
drivers logo-certified and digitally signed.

Thanks. It's actually kinda funny how a public site can be so well-hidden!
Even a lot of people inside Microsoft don't seem to know about it.
