It's not possible to install 32-bit updates on a 64-bit system. You can download updates manually and then transfer them to a 32-bit system safely, if that's what you are trying to do.

no
What is the main advantage of selecting a 64bit operating system over a 32bit operating system?
It isn't an issue of advantages, it is an issue of compatibility with your computer. The 64 bit operating system can take full advantage of the capabilities of a 64 bit microprocessor, if your computer has a 64 bit microprocessor. However a 64 bit operating system will not run at all if your computer has an older 32 bit microprocessor; you will have to use a 32 bit operating system on that computer.
What is the use of 'svchostexe'?

What is the difference between vista 32bit and 64bit?
64 bit operating system support more amount of RAM and hard drive space (also depends on hardware).
Do you need 32bit or 64bit for 4gb of ram?
You can use either a 32bit or 64bit operating system (OS) for 4GB of RAM. 4GB of memory is the limit a 32bit OS can handle, this includes any memory that your graphics card has, so your computer may recognise only 3.5GB of RAM if you have a 512MB GPU. You will need a 64bit os that will use all of the ram.
Can you install Windows XP 32bit on a single SATA hard drive system?
Yes.
Is there a LOL 64bit version?
There is not. And that is because 64bit can run 32bit, but 32bit has problems running 64bit.
Would a 64Bit processor work with a 32Bit operating system?
It can do but it is really the other way around. A 32-bit operating system can work with a 64-bit processor. However, if the processor doesn't have a "soft" switching mode, you will have to manually switch the 64-bit processor to 32-bit mode via the CMOS setup. Ideally you should install a 64-bit operating system and leave the processor in 64-bit mode. This will then allow you to run 32-bit programs and 64-bit programs side-by-side.
Whats the Difference between 32bit iTunes and 64bit iTunes?

How much memory does Google SketchUp take?
The amount of memory (RAM) Google SketchUp or any other design tool out there is using, is relative to the complexity of the model you are working on. Ideally, the more the better, but that is also Operating system (OS) limited: - Sketchup is a 32bit application. - Windows 32bit cannot address (use) more than 3GB or RAM (3.2GB, but w/e). Having more than 3GB (or 4GB, still you cannot use all of it) in a 32bit Windows Machine is pointless. Macs work a bit differently, so even 32bit OS can address more than that. - Individual Applications are not allowed by 32bit Windows to use address more than 2GB of RAM. - Windows 64bit, by default, run 32bit Applications (like Sketchup) with the same 2GB limitation, only that can be "patched", so each can use up to 4GB (64bit apps do not have such limiations, but SU is not one of them yet). You can follow the guide in this site to do so: http://maketecheasier.com/increase-memory-limit-for-32-bit-applications-in-windows-64-bit-os/2011/08/13
Difference between windows 98 and windows NT?
