Why is Vista 64 bit largely unsupported, especially in the Juno keyboard range??? The new Windows 7 (64 bit) drivers are apparently incompatible??

Don't believe everythign they say!!!!

I was told for years that the Roland XV-5050 was incompatible with 64bit

Guess what? I just piggybacked another driver (the SD-80 AS WELL AS the Fantom driver) and managed to install the XV5050 no problemo!

I had to do some inf file editing to make sure the right model name and audio ins and outs were used, but not alot of programming was needed at all and it would have worked regardless of the programming! I'm just picky.

I recommend you check out this page, and choose a product along the same lines as the Juno range, maybe the SH-201.

Manually install the driver using the 'Have Disc' method
