I've got CFS 2 and CFS 3 workin in Win 7 64-bit Ultimate. No issues or work arounds, just run as an admin and keep it out of Program Files.

Well, CFS 1 controls are working, kind of, through the magic of Control Manager as described in this thread.

I haven't tried CFS 1 yet on Win7 64 bit but had no problems with CFS 2 or 3.

Thank you ArgonV for providing such a simple but effective install and run info for CFS3 on W7. After weeks of doing all kinds of different install methods provided on many other forums, yours was so simple and a breath of fresh air from all of the other nonsense instructions. This is a message to all that ArgonV's instructions WORK! Thanks again. BobK cheers

Nah, I'd just put the CFS folder on the root of your hard drive or in a "Games" folder. I have a gaming hard drive, where the games are just installed in their own respective folder on the root.
