I plan on buying the Fallout Trilogy ( 1, 2 and Tactics) from this site so I can get a full Fallout experience to complement Fallout 3. I was wondering if the games are compatible with the Windows 7 ( RC, Beta or the final release ). I would assume so since I see that they are compatible with Vista, but I want to make sure.
Also, I currently have the 32-bit version installed, but I plan to upgrade to a 64-bit version once the release date come around. Will I encounter any problems with the games once I do?
Thanks for the Help!

I can think of no reason why the GOG Fallout games shouldn't work on Windows 7.
However, regarding your color scheme... Fallout can only run in Windows Basic. I found that I had to drop my screen resolutions to the lowest settings in order to achieve this. If you do not adjust your settings, you may find that the color scheme of your Fallout game looks really, really weird. That said, if adjusting the settings is your only problem, the game should work as well on a 64-bit as it does on a 32.
This is all based on my own experience. Your mileage may vary.

I recently tested out some of the games from GoG, got the free ones and they worked well. But I think you misunderstood the last part of my question. I was referring to the build of the OS, not the color scheme when I mentioned 32 ( x86) and 64-bit.

I run vista 64-bit and Fallout 1 works perfectly fine so presumably 1,2, and tactics should all work just fine on 64-bit Windows 7 since it's compatibilty is supposed to be no different than Vista
