I was able to install 64-bit perl, can't remember the version but I wanted to be able to use the import_spells.pl file in /utils/ folder and couldn't since the 64-bit perl doesn't have the needed DBD-mysql. So I went with 32-bit version of perl. It may be that I never did actually run with the 64-bit version because I installed it and then tried to get the spell file into the database and failed and went to a 32-bit version.

I have been using RC of Windows 7 and I couldn't be any happier. The game is actually much smoother than it ever could be on Windows XP and works straight out of the box without any tweaks. You will be fine.
