Yes, we're planning to complete the 64-bit wddm driver version right
after we're done with the 32bit one.<br>

<div bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000"> You're right, we
already have a kind-of working wddm driver for 32bit Vista
& 7. The major advantage of wddm driver is that no
system files replacement is needed any more and thus no
safe mode guest addition install is required. Also Aero
theme can now be enabled in guests.<br>
The major concern so far is performance and we're working
on it.<br>
Alexey Eromenko already gave you a brief explanation on
how guest 3d works. I can only add that wddm driver still
uses wined3d internally and translates d3d requests to
opengl commands being passed to host via "Chromium".<br>
