Two questions about hardware, will it work?

[ronlut]

Hi.
I have 2 things i'm not sure will work on my future windows 7 64-bit:
1. When running the upgrade advisor, it showed me this: URL
Does that really mean my audio card wouldn't work with windows 7, especially with the 64-bit version? I have only XP 32-bit drivers.

2. I want to buy a game pad from ebay, a cheap one - not a Logitech or something like that, something generic.
If it says "Plug and play" do I need any drivers? Will it work 100% on Windows 7 64-bit?
This is the item: URL

Thanks.

You're out of luck on the audio. Unless you could find a Vista driver x64.

I recommend Logitech Rumblepad 2. It's cheap enough at like $25.

It's so great that I can't even play PS3 without it. I gotta use it. Really nice, sturdy feel to it.

Thanks.
The problem with the logitech game pad is that I live in Israel, so with shipping it would be around 50$ :\
And that's too much. :huh:
