Long story short. Brand new assembled system, 32-bit windows 10 operating system on x64-based processor as follows-

OS NameMicrosoft Windows 10 Home Single LanguageVersion10.0.10586 Build 10586Other OS DescriptionNot AvailableOS ManufacturerMicrosoft CorporationSystem NameDESKTOP-ILC775NSystem ManufacturerBIOSTAR GroupSystem ModelH81MLV3System TypeX86-based PCSystem SKUNoneProcessorIntel(R) Pentium(R) CPU G3220 @ 3.00GHz, 3000 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s)BIOS Version/DateAmerican Megatrends Inc. 4.6.5, 21-05-2014SMBIOS Version2.7Embedded Controller Version255.255BIOS ModeLegacyBaseBoard ManufacturerBIOSTAR GroupBaseBoard ModelNot AvailableBaseBoard NameBase BoardPlatform RoleDesktopSecure Boot StateUnsupportedPCR7 ConfigurationBinding Not PossibleWindows DirectoryC:\WindowsSystem DirectoryC:\Windows\system32Boot Device\Device\HarddiskVolume1LocaleIndiaHardware Abstraction LayerVersion = "10.0.10586.420"UsernameDESKTOP-ILC775N\BKBTime ZoneIndia Standard TimeInstalled Physical Memory (RAM)4.00 GBTotal Physical Memory3.42 GBAvailable Physical Memory1.23 GBTotal Virtual Memory6.35 GBAvailable Virtual Memory3.48 GBPage File Space2.93 GBPage FileC:\pagefile.sysHyper-V - VM Monitor Mode ExtensionsYesHyper-V - Second Level Address Translation ExtensionsYesHyper-V - Virtualisation Enabled in FirmwareYesHyper-V - Data Execution ProtectionYes

After 3 months of torture found that my Processor G3220 (3M Cache, 3.00 GHz), Doesn't support windows 10-32-bit but only 64 bit. For my app running only on 32 bit, I would like to stay on 32 Bit. Is there anything that I can do that will run system smoothly? May be Beta driver OR other software Or some tweak ? anything that will make system stable. Or is only option left is to upgrade to 64 bit ?

Hi Ganesh-B,

 

 

I double checked the compatible operating systems with HD Graphics on your processor and only Windows 10 64bit is supported.

 

 

More details on the link below:

Now, if you want to keep using 32bits, I suggest you to install the latest drivers of your motherboard available in the link below:

In regards to the graphics drivers, let Windows 10 update installs the best option available instead of our driver.

Hello Mike C, Thanks for your reply. I have already done that earlier but system freezes randomly. I already have all the drivers installed from Biostar website, which link you forwarded. I once again uninstalled Intels graphic driver and now it shows Microsoft basic display adapter. However if I check windows update, it didnt find anything with graphic / adapter driver. But when I update driver through device manager it again installs Intels driver.However irrespective of Microsoft or intel (currently available) driver, system hard hangs randomly. Any other tweak that can be done ? Or only option is to upgrade to Windows 10, 64 bit.

Hi Ganesh-B,

 

 

I am afraid but in this case it is necessary to change the version of your operating system to 64bit.
