It would cost the reseller approximately $250 per OS (though some OSs are now free if submitted at the same time) to certify the driver for their vid/pids. I only downloaded one copy of the latest version of the driver and took a look in the cab file. It has all the h, lib and dll files needed for both 32 and 64 bit. Orin.
