Does N5010 Ci3 comptaible with WIN 7 32-bit version or with 64-bit version

Question

I purchased the Inspiron N5010 Ci3 and installed Win 7 32-bit version. Now after that i am having issues with some drivers as they are not working on win7 32-bit version. Some one told me that the system is fully compatible  with 64-bit version of WIN 7 and after installing it i will not require to install any driver manually. So i just want to confirm that 'Is it true or not'. Please confirm me about N5010 Ci3 windows 7 version compatibility. Looking forward for replies. Thanks.

It will run with 64-bit WIndows, but all the drivers needed for the 32-bit version will still be needed on the 64-bit version.

Thanks for your reply. Can you give me the link from where i can download all the required drivers.

There won't be just one link. Go through the list of components for which Dell has 64-bit drivers, take that list and go to the component makers' websites - ATI, Intel, Broadcom, etc. and download the 32-bit drivers for each piece of hardware.
