The Nvidia drivers for win7 are good.
P.S. Upgrading from Server 2003 which i had before (32 bit and not R2) to 2008 (R2 - 64b only) was a huge pain. No option for inplace upgrade. For some reason 2008 R2 seemed much faster than Win7, even when you added the desktop role (which adds aero, games, media player, etc...)
Upgrading from XP pro x64 (which i had before) to Win7 ult/64 was also not possible.
MS should have worked harder to get a good in-place upgrade method sortted out IMHO.

To be honest, I always prefer to simply back-up all important data externally and run a fresh install anyhow.... much easier to trouble-shoot if something goes awry on all the subsequent app and driver installs
