Um wait if you installed fresh you would not have windows 32 bit so what
your saying is you upgraded from a clean windows 7 32 bit install which is
going to be problems. The only way I have seen it work clean is if the
system comes pre installed or if you have a full install CD and the correct
drivers for the computer.
