My laptop disagrees with that statement. I have a mandriva 2007.0 on an amd64 laptop, and ndiswrapper (1-21-1mdv2007.0) works dandy.

From the <a href="http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/FAQ#Can_I_use_ndiswrapper_in_64-bit_mode_for_AMD64.3F">FAQ</a>:
Can I use ndiswrapper in 64-bit mode for AMD64?

* Support for 64-bit drivers has been added in version 1.0. Broadcom cards work well with stable release.

* Versions since 1.4-rc2 support INPROCOMM IPN2220 cards. [That's what I have, in fact]

* If your driver causes kernel oops because of reading from address 0xfffffff780000xxx, where x is any number, please report it.
