I'm assuming the OP chose the OS according to local preference /
availability of know-how, so unless running Java apps on MS-Windows is
fundamentally broken (no idea, really) I'd say stick with the OS and
just get the install error fixed. (Or install by hand.)

As for limits of 32-bit machines: Univie is serving 120k users (incl
the central VLE/course management system) just fine with a single
32-bit machine with 4GB RAM. So 32-bit /may/ still good enough,
depending on what you're doing.
