  Can. Format the system and install XP.

  LOL.... you really asking for trouble.
  
  x32 stands for 32-bit. Most PCs nowadays are 32-bit, unless you have bought a brand new one which supports 64-bit.
  
  x64 is rarely compatible with x32 drivers, that's why you run into problems. (That's as of now. MS might make it compatible with x32, like how they supported games which run on only x16 platform).
  
  I don't know if Lotus Notes run on x64 machines... check with Lotus Notes, most likely not, since you ran into trouble with it.

  I'm thinking if I should upgrade to Vista as I'm using Windows XP Professional now.
