It can be made to work with 64bit version of Win7 -which I think is what you're trying to do?

I don't use Chrome but on this dl page (http://www.google.com/chrome), it says for Win7 so supposedly, it'll work for 7. What error did you get?

Edit: I suggest you download it from my link and reinstall it. Obviously, it's the latest version and it might work well for 7.

Just out of curiosity, I d/l'ed and installed Chrome from the link above and it's running pretty good on my Win7 Ultimate x64. :)

Try removing Chrome and reinstalling it.

Try running the Windows Installer Clean Up Utility from here (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301) and remove anything associated with Google Chrome. Then reboot the PC and try installing the version Van linked to.
