    The AMD auto-detect software needs win7 compat selected. Other then that, everything else (GPU, SATA, SB) drivers worked fine without compat settings :)

    I didn't try those drivers yet in Dev Preview, but if it's anything like back in 7955 and 7989, those drivers don't provide OpenGL support

    Less then 4GB system RAM = 32-bit
    More then or equal to 4GB system RAM = 64-bit

    That's the general rule anyway.
