EM64T processors support an emulation mode for legacy 32-bit programs and operating systems. If you want to take advantage of the wider data path, you will need to install a EM64T aware version of your operating system. (While in theory it would be possible for a 32-bit os to support running 64-bit binaries, you may need to install the 'amd64' version of the kernel.)
