Most people out there that have 64bit systems still run 32bit XP. You shouldn't run into any issues.

It wouldnt damage any of your hardware and may be in fact better supoort for 32bit drivers. It wont make it run slower as 64 bit has not really evolved yet.

if anything 32 bit will probably make your system run faster... most people with 64 bit windows say that its laggy and end up going back to 32 bit
