Try HERE.

You will also have to find the correct 64bit drivers for your hardware.

The only thing I know (or at least I think) is that if your device drivers were included with windows, it should work. Check the device maker's website to see the drivers for 64 bit. Some devices like the Intel PCI gigabit card may not work on Win 7 64 (I found about this while looking for upgrades for my P4-1300 machine running XP Pro)
