Nearly all 32 bit applications work on Windows 7 64 bit.

Which ones are not working for you? Please be more specific.

If you have either the Professional Edition or the Ultimate installed, you can use the XP Virtual Mode.

Download and run the SecureAble diagnostic tool
Navigate to the Windows 7 XP Mode download page, and download the XP Mode software.
Locate the "Virtual Windows XP" option on the Start Menu, and select it.
Configure the settings for the Virtual Machine, and add any security options you wish to use on the configuration screen. When you have finished the configuration process, press "OK" to start the virtual machine.
Install any desired software and applications in the virtual machine. The workspace is a complete, normal installation of Windows XP.
