Can you please share the error message you are receiving, as well as a link to the images you are downloading and attempting to use? It is possible to run a 64-bit Virtual machine on a 32-bit OS, but it requires use of processor level virtualization extensions, which are vt-x for intel chips, or amd-v for AMD chips. VMWare makes a small utility that can verify if your particular setup is compatible.
