    Does the x64 version of Vista have driver for Realtek 8029AS?

    I read that Realtek would not produce a 64-bit driver for this old card...

    You'll need to ask Realtek, no one here can answer for them. It would not
    surprise me given that many older devices are not being supported.

    Just try to install. If it is a popular chipset there maybe standard Vista
    drivers on the Vista DVD.

    Yeah, but that's not my decision, nor is it yours. If Realtek says
    "bye-bye!" then that's it, no drivers, no support, no luck.

    The BNC cable is more resistant to tear. Really don't want to let go...
