I'm afraid that running a desktop without 64bit support is very limiting wrt memorry. On the other hand without 32bit support legacy binary applications won't run. Either way, I trashed the system where I tried this because the Windows 3D drivers broke, and Virtualbox does not accept tablet input on Windows so is totally unusable anyway regardless of 3D support.
