Driver Problems Plague Windows For AMD64 Beta

February 10th 2004 | Drivers

Here’s the basic problem. Were you aware that Intel actually writes a heap of drivers for Windows? And that when Windows XP was being launched, both Intel and Microsoft helped out some hardware vendors by assisting them with driver writing?Unfortunately, Windows for AMD64 is not a high priority for Microsoft. By which we mean that it’s not going to go out of its way to help out AMD, without the chip company paying a heap of money for the effort. And AMD’s pockets aren’t that deep, nor has it that many software developers it can spare for the task.
