Alright, so I have a 32 bit Nvidia 210 and a computer running Windows 10 that is also 32 bit (but has a 64-bit processor). If I install a Windows 10 64 bit driver, will it be compatible with my Windows 10 32 bit (that has a 64bit processor) computer?

You need to install a driver compatible with the operating system (OS).
If you have a 32-bit OS you must install 32-bit software and drivers.

You should be aware that the 32-bit version can only address 3.2GB of RAM (even if you have more) and it is less secure that the 64-bit version.

I have 4 GB of RAM though will that be alright?
