Wireless network cards for computers require control software to make them function (firmware, device drivers). This is a list of the status of some open-source drivers for 802.11 wireless network cards.
Consequently, many popular chipsets either don't have a native Linux driver at all, or only have a half-finished one. For these, the freely available NdisWrapper and its commercial competitor DriverLoader allow Windows x86 and 64 bit variants NDIS drivers to be used on x86-based Linux systems and 86_64 architectures as of January 6, 2005.

It is the last version of Microsoft Windows that supports 32-bit processors (IA-32 and ARMv7-based) and 64-bit processors without POPCNT and SSE4.2 [30], the last non-IoT edition to officially lack a CPU whitelist [31] and support BIOS firmware, [32] [33] and the last version to officially support systems with TPM 1.2 or without any TPM at all.
Windows XP x64 Edition includes both 32- and 64-bit versions of Internet Explorer 6, in order to allow for the possibility that some third-party browser plugins or ActiveX controls may not yet be available in 64-bit versions.
