Im thinking of buying Windows 7, But i had a question.
Im using a Compaq computer i got in 2007. Would the drivers support Windows 7? And is it worth it?

One of the biggest things about Win7 was that it uses the Vista drivers, so everything compatible with Vista is compatible with Win7.
So yes, you'll be 100% okay.

Don't know regarding 64bit -> 32bit drivers though, make sure you find 32bit drivers for your system before you switch.
