Go to the MBoard manuf. site for all appropiate drivers...

If they don't show Vista drivers you may be outta luck...

Have you tried the 32-bit Vista driver yet? I have seen 32-bit drivers work fine under 64-bit before in some situations.

Indeed the 32bit driver works very well under 64bit for me as well.
