As a matter of policy, HP and other name-brand companies provide the operating
system included with the computer when you buy it, and nothing else. No
upgrades. HP does not usually provide downloadable drivers, unless the
originals have horrific errors. Nada. What you see is what you get.

I doubt that HP would do differently with your computer and 64-bit Windows. If
you want to try it, you'll need to buy a retail copy when available in stores.

I do not believe that statement is true; the driver page for the NX9105 has
nearly a dozen updated drivers, as well as more than a dozen downloadable
original version drivers. See
http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/hpcpqnk/us/locate/64_6019.html. I do
not see any X64 drivers offered yet, but it is probably worth signing up for
driver update notification at
