It was re-flashing (re-install) I was concerned about, not a straight update to the OS. I had no problem updating to 1.3 using Win Vista 64 Ultimate.
You may have meant "re-flash" but I want to be certain of that beforehand.
I just want to clarify..

Droll - We are discussing Windows 7 Pro 64-bit becasue it is the primary OS I am using. I've started another thread to try and decide which versions of the Linux distros to use for a multiboot system (I'll swap HD's when I need to move between Win 7 Pro 64 and the multi Linux). Feel free to bash Win 7 64-bit there.

I finally managed to have Windows X64 running as quick as XP light on the device but somehow My Virtualbox Linux machines run slower than before, damn Nokia for leaving us with 256MB RAM.

No problem with multiboot : maemo 5, nitdroid, suse linux and windows 7 32Bit.
the only problem with windows 7 is you can't use the FM transmitter
try windows xp mode (its 32bit) - it worked for me

My question is moot as I've decided to buy a second HD and set it up for multiboot with a number of Linux distros. I'll re-flash using one of those (Ubuntu, Fedora or Debian) in 32-bit so long as there is a copy of the flashing software from Nokia for Linux distros (It would make sense as the N900 is a Linux distro).

I have a dv7 Hp 64 with, then, a beta version of win 7 Pro. I flashed my N900 twice without any issues.
I don't think it is an HP issue.
