chrome is completely vista compatible and depending on if you have flash java ect. for games.

google chrome won't be released for another year or so.
there is a beta version you can boot in a virtual environment to try it out.
it will only erase your hd if you tell it to. it will be hardware specific when it comes out so you most likely will have to buy it on a device instead of install it on something you already own.

1. It depends on how you set it up. There's various boot managers that will let you choose your operating system when you start up your computer.

2. Only browser-based games. So flash games mostly. Certainly not any games you have installed on your computer in Vista.

3. You'll have to install it on a new partition, which can involve reformatting (deleting) your hard drive and reinstalling. However, there are applications you can download that can format your hard drive without deleting it.

Chrome OS will only be available on the system that you purchase it.
Since the browser is the OS, I would think not (assuming you mean games that you install with a disc).
Well, since you can't put it on a computer with an existing OS, no.
