Yeap…Most software that runs on XP will run on Windows 7 even if you use the 64 bit version…
Answer #2
Older programs might have some problems but it doesn’t sound like that would affect you.
Personally I dislike the Win 7 interface and still prefer XP because it works faster and better for me.

Hi
When you say older programs do you mean programs before XP like Dos related and such?
Answer #4
you won’t be able to play dos programs without an emulator of some sort
your drivers will be different, you definitely can’t use the same ones
you’ll need new programs as well, though you can run some under compatibility mode
otherwise, the interface is better in my opinion
and judging from what you have mentioned,
you won’t have a problem doing any of those things
