Can I know why technically ?

(A discussion on Apple support lists also mentions an Apple support guy who suggests that Apple may update the driver to 64 bits). > The old drivers will not work. It's dead. Charles, software doesn't "die". After reading a bit about it, it looks like the driver does not work because Mountain Lion only accepts 64 bits code and the driver is a 32 bits program.
