Hi Mac,
My Laptop has Windows 7 64 bit. Have you tried the Windows 7 'Compatibility"
mode. If you type "compatable" in the new search "programs and file window"
it will tell you something about running old programs in Windows 7.
You could also upgrade to the professional version of Windows 7 that also
has a "Windows xp" mode.
I use DOS box for running DOS programs like Dialist's Companion:

Subject: OBASIC on a 64 bit Windows 7 PC?
Hello Friends,
I've just bought a PC which runs Windows 7 (Home Premium) 64-bit.
Despite what the sales Tech said, it doesn't seem to deal with QBASIC
at all.
There were some postings a while ago about using sundial software
with Windows 7, but looking through the archives I didn't find
anything about QBASIC and Windows 7.
If anyone knows of a reasonably simple way to use QBASIC on a 64-bit
Windows 7 PC, please let me in on the secrets as soon as possible,
for the PC is still returnable for full refund.
Thanks,
Mac
P.S. It would also be very useful to hear from anyone who knows (or
is pretty sure) that there is no hope of running QBASIC on my new PC.
