Sure, no problem! When I uses OpenVPN 2.2.2 on Windows 7 64-bit I also could execute openvpn in console with any config-file and the connection was established.
Now with OpenVPN 2.3 alpha the TLS config files works fine with GUI but not via console. Via console the connection will be established but the OpenVPN network adapter will be not connected (cable is removed). This I think is a bug in 2.3 alpha, because this worked with 2.2.2.
