another option (assuming you have a valid XP license) is to utilize the "XP mode" that's available within Windows 7. it requires a download from MS but basically allows you to run a virtual instance of XP within windows 7 to accommodate legacy apps that simply won't work with 7. Unless i'm horribly wrong, you can run 64 bit 7 as your main os and use xp mode as 32 bit...As I suggested before, try Windows 7 Enterprise Trial 64-bit on a 64-bit box. If you have some legacy apps which simply will not work, you can always dual boot with a 32-bit version of Windows XP.
