Game Demos on 64 bit OS?

Just wondering if game demos such as Crysis that were downloaded from File Planet will run on Vista ultimate 64 bit.
thanks.

Should work fine. Any game, full or demo, should work on 64bit Vista.

I don't see why not. 32-bit software runs just fine on Vista x64.

(Though not so much on XP x64...)

What do you run that does not work on x64? I'm curious, as I have not had any problems as of yet installing/running anything on x64.

somwhat OT but i agree. been running XP x64 since launch in 2005 and havent had any problems whatsoever with probably 99.9% of apps and games. i can list on 1 hand the programs i've had issues with...WinFlash (windows-based BIOS flasher), WinColor (MS' monitor color profile system), and a few other very small apps...

I will try it, the page claims support for the OS. AS of now I use ATITool w/o issue.
*Edit*
Installed, and runs w/o issue.
