I found out that "updating your graphics driver" is a thing, but every time I do, it's telling me I'm 32bit when I'm 64bit.

"... is not a valid Win32 application"

Please help.. :(

The driver download is probably corrupt. As suggested, you should try re-downloading the file. Also, most if not all driver installers are probably going to be 32bit simply because there is no need for them to be 64bit, and at the least a 64bit driver package can still execute on a 32bit OS to tell you that you downloaded the wrong drivers.

64bit applications won't launch on a 32bit OS. The "blah is not a valid Win32 application" is a dead giveaway that you're likely running a 64bit executable on a 32bit OS.

If you are absolutely certain that you're on a 64bit OS, the file is likely corrupt as stated before.
