Then, further down the page for Visa64 it says:

There are several additional requirements for the x64 version of Windows Vista.
  • Self-signed and other types of untrusted certificates can be used on test computers instead of release-signed drivers. Released products must have a trusted signature or the driver does not load. For further information about how to test sign drivers for the x64 version of Windows Vista, see Digital Signatures for Kernel Modules on Systems Running Windows Vista, listed in the Resources section.
  • Unsigned drivers can only be loaded on test computers by using the F8 option, or by attaching an active debugger.
  • Non-Plug and Play drivers can be either embedded-signed or have a signed catalog file. In either case, signing non-Plug and Play drivers require a cross-certificate.
Quite confusing. It says it can be installed based on trust levels and administrative settings. I just hope that administrative setting is the boot-time parameter that most people can't handle.
