You can install a 32 bit version of the open source 3D driver as well.  Just
because the graphics in a game do not appear to be 3D, they generally still use
a 3D API (OpenGL or Direct3D) which requires a 32 bit 3D driver since the apps
are 32 bit.  Also there seem to be several possibly unrelated issues now piled
onto this bug.
