Lea,
Please download latest version of charm source from
http://charm.cs.uiuc.edu/autobuild/cur, and refer to README.win32 for
compiling and installing Charm using VC++ and Cygwin. I never tested it
on win64 though, but I think it should work, please let me know how it goes.
Once Charm gets compiled, NAMD should be relatively straightforwad.

I'm not an expert in Windows OS's, but I've heard long time ago that cygwin is using the WOW64-32 bit environment on Win-64. Up to know I haven't heard of anybody using a 64-bit version of cywin. Maybe you can try to compile it and see how it performs (compared to the 32-bit version). But I'm really not sure if the performance of a 64-bit version of NAMD running under Windows will perform significantly better...
