Hello,

Your laptop is equipped with Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit from the factory, so logically it supports Windows 32-bit.
Is the Windows Version on My Computer 32-bit or 64-bit?

 

But the Intel Core i3-350M processor used in your notebook supports 64-bit operating systems, so it should not be a problem to install Windows 64-bit on your notebook.

Do not hesitate to contact us in case of need.
