It does not as far as I know, I've been playing on that OS (Windows 7 64 ) and no special executable needs to be honest. Also runs pretty well.

Depends on the game though, if you only fly CoD then it is a no-brainer to use Win7 64 but if you play other games then XP and win7 32 offer far greater stablity.
It is always a trade-off which is rather strange as almost every single cpu made nowdays is 64bit enabled

Special exe is not needed, because windows emulate 32 bit. But if you want to have goodies of 64 bit operating system (better memory management), program (COD in this case) should be written for 64 bit.

As it the case with DCS: A10C. You have 32 & 64 bit exe ...
