I've played Left for Dead and Fear2 on my x64 Windows 7 installation with no issues.
Make sure to install in compatibility mode for "Run as Windows Vista" and "Run as Administrator"

Dunno where you can get a legal copy of the beta OS, but keys are still available at: http://www.microsoft...a-download.aspx

Your best bet for getting a legit copy is by finding someone with the Windows 7 ISO image on a DVD who is willing to share with you, then just get a key from the link usasma provided. Also, you can play 32bit games on a 64bit OS, but not 64bit games on a 32bit OS.
Cheers,
