1.  What is ATS9351 Install Disk ?
ATS9351 Install Disk provides device drivers and DLLs required to operate 
the ATS9351 500 MS/s 2-channel, 12-bit PCI Express Digitizer under Windows 2000,
Windows XP, Windows XP x64, Vista 32 bit and Vista 64 bit operating systems.

ATS9351 Install Disk also includes a free license of AlazarDSO application 
program that allows you to setup one or more ATS9351 cards, acquire and 
view analog signals and save the data to disk.  Note that AlazarDSO is available
as a 32 bit application as well as a true 64 bit application.  

If you run the 32 bit AlazarDSO on a PC running 64-bit Windows, it will use the 
WOW DLL and 64 bit driver.  

If you run the 64 bit AlazarDSO on a PC running 64-bit Windows, it will use the

Windows does not allow 64 bit AlazarDSO to run on a 32 bit operating system.
