does CVR4 still run on chrome?

If you have the windows 7 license and media then you can upgrade from Vista to windows 7. It needs to be the same version of Windows 7 as you have with Vista so Vista Home = Windows 7 Home / Vista Pro = Win7 Pro. And it'll need to be the same architecure, 32bit stays 32bit and 64bit stays 64bit.

That said, I would never really recommend using the upgrade method as it leaves so much bloat behind that can induce stability issues anyway.

Edit - an option is to buy another harddrive, swap this into the machine and install windows 7 on it. Then buy yourself an external Harddrive Caddy and fit the Vista harddrive into it, You should be able to Boot from the external harddrive into Vista to access any of the legacy programs that you cannot install onto the windows 7 machine, then use windows 7 the rest of the time.
