The machine has Windows 10-32 bit OS installed on a x64 based processor

Is the 32 or 64 bit bios dependent on the OS or the hardware.

No it doesn't matter if its 32bit or 64bit, reboot the computer and go into bios setup screen.
It should display on the bottom right or left which bios version it has currently.
