Switching from 64-bit to 32-bit (or doing the reverse) requires a re-install of the OS. If you have the windows 8 install disk, it should allow you to re-install the OS as the 32-bit version using the same key.
Nope, don't have disc, as machine came with Windows 8 (64-bit) factory loaded.
Do have disc and key for 32-bit version.
"Do" or don't have the 32bit install disk?
DO have 32-bit install disc. Sorry, I have not used PCs since the '90's (am , well-versed in the 'other' computer environment), and MS makes this stuff WAY too labor-intensive. Am pretty frustrated with what should be a simple fix.
