BMD Drivers XP x64

I know that Vegas 7.0a isn't officially supported on 64bit PC with XP x64, but it runs fanatastic on ours.
Major problem: Had 4 GB RAM and really-really noticed the improvement when Video RAM was max(1024) and had a complex edit (plus photoshop and other progs open). We use BMD Decklinks and current driver for them on x64 means we have to take out RAM to get the card going (reduce to 2GB) - but version 5.7 will support more RAM. Asked BMD about Vegas and new BMD driver and they said MMS will ahve to have new version of Vegas to support next driver(!!!)Hi,

"Yes, DeckLink 5.7 x64 drivers will support more than 3 GB of RAM.

Vegas 7.0a has been specifically written around the DeckLink 5.6 drivers and will only work with that version. The Vegas notes mention they have tested SDI capture and playback and analog monitoring but not analog capture. Vegas 7.0 will not work with the DeckLink 5.7 drivers unless Vegas is updated."

Bummer!!
Anyone at MMS reading this give me a hint that next .dot release may support BMD 5.7???
