My system is as follows:

Computer Type ACPI Multiprocessor x64-based PC
Operating System Microsoft Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
OS Service Pack Service Pack 2

Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.13 (IE 7.0)
DirectX 4.09.00.0904 (DirectX 9.0c)

CPU Type DualCore AMD Athlon 64 X2, 2200 MHz (11 x 200) 4200+

CPU Motherboard Name Asus A8N-VM CSM (2 PCI, 1 PCI-E x1, 1 PCI-E x16, 4 DDR DIMM, Audio, Video, Gigabit LAN, IEEE-1394)Type DualCore AMD Athlon 64 X2, 2200 MHz (11 x 200) 4200+

Motherboard Chipset nVIDIA GeForce 6150, AMD Hammer

What should my up-to date drivers look like, including the current version?

I admittedly get confused by the "WHQL" . After I switched to 64 bit,
obviously some things just dont want to cohabitate

hey there. for your motherboard chipset, you should be running the 8.26 WHQL drivers. The "WHQL" just means that the drivers have been certified by Microsoft to work. Beta drivers are drivers that have been tested by NVIDIA, but not yet certified by Microsoft.

remember though, the audio drivers are seperate of the chipset drivers so you would need to install those as well. You can get those from ASUS's website.
