My apologies
No need to apologize :-)
I should have remembered that traditional installation medias are rarer
amongst user-friendly distros like Ubuntu that provide primarily live-medias
i thought this image was a live image and that was what i
didn't understand. I realise 32 bit is going but i haven't the cash at
present to consider a new PC.

As Thomas suggested, you could try a (amd64) 64 bits live image
(Debian-live...) on this PC: some users assume their computer is 32 bits
because it was factory fitted with a 32 bits operating system, but
sometimes that computer is 64 bits hardware either for marketing or
technical reasons..
Nowadays, one can install a 64 bits operating system even on some 64
bits computers that have a 32 bits BIOS.
The last true 32 bits Intel CPU for PC has been launched 20 years ago.
Chances are that even if your PC is 10 or 15 years old, it is nontheless
64 bits hardware.
