I've been using canopus DVRaptor for years for both digital and analog capturing. Recently switched to Vista 64. But couldn't find any 64 bit driver for the DVRaptor. Is there a way to install the old 32 bit driver on a Vista 64 system and make it works?

No.... 32bit drivers do not work with XP/Vista x64 plain and simple.

If you really need the DVRaptor either go back to Vista x86 or use it in another computer running XP/Vista x86.

Hardware vendors usually don't write drivers for old hardware especially when they were considered cheap as the Raptor was! once they decide to stop supporting it your on your own, it's this point where you are supposed to go and buy new hardware! or switch to linux :)

Keep in mind the Raptor was released atleast 6 maybe 7 years before Vista, as far as Canopus are concerned it's life cycle is over.
