Are there any free c/c++ compilers which will allow compilation
targeting 64 bit WIndows 7?

Free no.

Here are some of the free ones:

The more traditional better support:

Free YES ;-)

Even so it is a driver kit, you can compile GUI applications too.

If this last is referring to the Express Edition of Visual Studio (although
it looks like a link to the SDK which AFAIK doesn't contain a compiler at
all) then *NO* it won't compile x64. I don't know about the other links
provided YMMV. Good luck.

The SDK does include several build environments and compilers for the mentioned languages.
It does not include an IDE or other source code editor.

For .NET you can use the SharpDevelop IDE at http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/ , which uses the compiler included in the
SDK.

For C you could use the MinGWdevStudio to create the code and compile for x64 using the SDK.

The express version of visual studio does not include a x64 compiler, but you can utilize the one included in the SDK.

Check the download page for the SDK, which includes hints about what is included or start the web download I linked to, to get the
list of components, you will be surprised.
