I have been trying to download my updated drivers for my BFG 280. When I download the current files for Vista 64 bit and try to install them it says that I am trying to use a 32 bit unistaller. Then it gives me the message that I am not using a 64 bit OS? Has anyone else run into this problem.

Yes I have tried both versions. The 32 bit version tells me that I am trying to use a 32 bit uninstaller on a 64 bit system. And the 64 bit version is saying that it does not detect a 64 bit system.
