 :? It'd be way easier to list ones that don't work, it would be a lot shorter.  Basically, if it runs on Vista it'll run on Windows 7, and on the rare instances it doesn't, there's XP mode for that.

Indeed. I don't think I've found a single one of my games that worked with XP not work in 7. I've had a couple older ones that didn't but fan patches generally had that fixed years ago.

The only problem I've come across so far is it can't run Duke Nukem 3D, but only because the 64 bit versions of Windows can't run 16 bit applications.

There's a project out there called Duke32 that'll run on 7 no problem. It's basically DN 3D running on the original Half Life engine. It's quite fun.

The only thing I've run across problems with is the KotoR games.

Is there a DOSbox out for 64-bit systems? Or does it work just fine the way it is?

64-bit versions of Windows run 32 bit programs just fine. They just dropped the 16 bit compatibility layer because there are so few programs that need it out there.
