hey guys/ladies, i was wondering if i will be able to run windows 7 32 bit on a 64 bit CPU, this is because i cannot find a PCI card that works with a windows 7 64 bit

Yeah, I'm pretty sure. I think most things with bigger numbers can run things with smaller numbers is the general rule.

Yea you can. What is the PCI card in question? It seems odd that it wouldn't work on Win 7 64.

Most (if not all) 32-bit window 7 drivers are compatible with the 64 bit OS.
I am currently using a 32-BIT EdiMax Wifi N card on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.


What is the PCI card that is in question?
If its a older card It may not be as worth hanging on too as you think.

I use PCI cards (a Wifi PCI card, PCI sound card and a PCI video card I keep for testing/trouble shooting)with Win XP 64 and WIn 7 64 bit with no issues.
