[Disksim-users] Look for x64 capable DiskSim version

[Peter Macko]

Hi,

The following patch did the trick for me:

    
http://scobyseo.blogspot.com/2009/12/disksim-40-ssd-extention-64bit-patch.html

The only inconvenience is that the patch did not apply cleanly, but it 
worked when I applied it manually.

Hope this helps,
-Peter
