    Yes, ofcourse you can. It will definitely work. But since your machine is having 64-bit
    architecture , it won't be properly utilised. So the speed burst and other things that
    come with 64-bit machine will be absent!! To make full use of your machine you
    must install 64-bit OS. In this case Suse 10 64-bit.
