Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit + Voucher
Intel? Core™ i7 920
Cooler Master Silent Pro M 600W

Any parts that is not windows 64 bit compatible and why, I'm totally new to windows 64 bit.
Any suggestions of changing parts is welcome, I want a HTPC because it reminds me of the old PC you can put your monitor on :o).
And I want to retrieve the old sata drives from my old system raid 0 or raid 1 if possible?

It will work fine with 64 bit windows, the only part that 64 bit windows requires for compatibility is a 64 bit processor, everything from the core2 series has been 64 bit(maybe even earlier) and AMD processors have be 64 bit for a long time.

Dont get the Zalman fan, there are cheaper and better performing coolers.
