Tasc did release a 32bit-driver. The Chessmaster 5500 and 6000 are able to connect to the Tasc Smartboard. The problem is, that is well known that Tasc has the worst support for costumers. I never had so much difficulties with another company. I did send them emails and never got an answer. I did try to telephone to them, but there never have been someone who was able to answer in a way that I could sa I trust them. Never!! So I believe it is the only chance when a company as the Millenium GmbH try to get in contact with them. It should not be such a big problem to support the Millenium GmbH.
