Microsoft officially announced that there is no 32 bit version of Windows Server 2008 R2. If you follow this link it clear shows that the minimum requirement for installing R2 is 64 bit processor http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd379511%28WS.10%29.aspxhttp://www.virmansec.com/blogs/skhairuddin
