Looking for x64 drivers for my OLD sound card.

My onboard sound card died a couple of months ago so I have been using this sound card:Creative PCI (ES1371, ES1373) I can't find a driver for vista x64 so I have been using vista x32.

I would like to re-install both windows versions and am debating over weather to using x32 as my main OS but the thing keeping me from doing that is that I have 4 gigs of RAM so I would like to be able to use all of that but I need an x64 OS to use all that. Now I know a sound card driver isn't a vital driver to have but I find it necessary to use when I play games and listen to music on my PC :rolleyes:

Does anyone know where I can find drivers for that card in x64 form? I'm planning on re-installing my OS in a couple of days and I can't decided weather to use x32 as my main OS or not; If I won't benefit much from the extra 1GB of RAM I may just switch everything over to x32.

What I have now is 1 500GB hard drive (My sig is wrong, I have not changed it because when my 750GB hard drive died I was unable to get the .png file off it) 410GB for x64, 30GB for x32, and about 25GB for random stuff.

As of tomorrow I will NOT have a video card because I am selling it and should be getting a new one by Wednesday, so I probably wont be on as much.

If there are any Vista x64 drivers out there, someone other than Creative made them.

Agreed... Creative doesn't care about you unless you own a X-Fi card, and gave crap Vista support for most of their cards (they have them, but the driver stability and quality isn't as high as usual)
