It should. It would be the other way around that wouldn't work. Anything in 64bit mode won't work on a 32. But I'm no Windows professional, so someone else may want to chime in here.

i would like to say.... i was running 2008 on xp pro 32bit then changed to 64 bit vista business (because i could legitimately get it for free (IEEE member)) and it worked fine
but it would crash when i would use the smoke effect, or try adjust particle settings when the timeline is running.

not sure if this is a 32-64bit issue though user added image

that's a "Ch" pronounced as a "K"

Computer skills I should have:
Objective C, C#, Java, MEL. Python, C++, XML, JavaScript, XSLT, HTML, SQL, CSS, FXScript, Clips, SOAR, ActionScript, OpenGL, DirectX
Maya, XSI, Photoshop, AfterEffects, Motion, Illustrator, Flash, Swift3D
