This should work fine.

Make sure that you create a swap partition or a swap file on your hard drive because 32MB is a smaller amound of RAM so you will need the swap space.

You can create a swapfile on an existing MSDOS/Win95/Win98/WinME partition by choosing "Setup DOS swapfile"

from the Main Menu.

Right-click anywhere on the desktop and the menu choice is located at:

System -> Setup DOS Swapfile
