Vista Ultimate Print Driver

I am looking for help with installing the print driver for Samsung ML-2010
onto my laptop that is running Vista Ultimate 64 bit. When I tried to
install the driver on my laptop, all I got was an error message saying that
"The printer driver is not compatible with a policy enabled on your computer
that blocks NT 4.0 drivers"

I also have a desktop that is running the 64 bit version of Vista Home
Premium. When I plugged the printer into the desktop, I had no problems
installing the print driver. If both computers are running 64 bit version of
Vista, shouldn't the print driver work with both.

This is the usual reference for this problem:

Are you sure that the notebook is running 64 bit Vista and not 32? Just a
thought. I don't know of any Notebooks/Laptops that actually are supplied
with the 64 bit version. Of course, that leaves aside a custom order or a
later change.
