I suspect likewise, and 32bit ASPI isn't going to work where 64bit is
required. I rather assumed that 64bit ASPI would be available, since it
would be needed for anything SCSI.

Yes, quite possibly VS needs a 64bit rewrite to work with the OS OK. That
may be the problem. Hopefully Ed will say.
I think you're right about hardware not having a 32 or 64bit architecture
in this context. It really shouldn't matter AFAICS, it just speaks
Firewire or USB or SCSI protocols, in the same way that TCP/IP is independent.
