Please forgive me if I am stupid or missing something,
but why did you install the 64-bit version with a
32 bit processor?  Could that be a problem?  I might
be ignorant...actually, I didn't even know that you could
successfuly do that and it might be completely
irrelevant to the situation, so it's just a question...

Thanks..
