Problems running on hp duo Pentium R processor

I have a number of clients running a program built

Only on the new HP, when they try to print they get an
import error;
File win32ui.pyc line 12, in module
File win32ui.pyc, line 10, in _load
ImportError: DLL load failed:  The specified module
could not be found.

It turns out that the E2200 processor is 64 bit 
architecture.  

What are my options?

I've run DependecyWalker, 
They are using Win XP Service Pack 2

If they are running standard Win XP (Home or Pro), as opposed to 64-bit Win
XP, then whether or not the CPU supports the IA64 instruction set really
doesn't matter. As far as I know every Intel Core2 and Pentium Dual-Core CPU
since ~ 2006 has supported 64bit instructions, even the Atom is 64bit. Also,
the R is for Registered Trademark (of Pentium), it's not part of the
name/model (http://ark.intel.com/cpu.aspx?groupId=33925).

Kevin ,
I'm trying to find out why my program gets an import 
error on only one machine.  Is there any problem with 
python running on a 64 bit Architecture machine or is 
it something specific to this one HP machine?  None of 
my other clients have had this problem, nor have I on 
any machine that I've tried tested it on.

 What Kevin's saying is that the architecture of the processor doesn't
really matter here. Just about every processor made in the last 2 years is a
64-bit processor. Even though they have 64-bit processors, most people are
still running the 32-bit version of Windows. In that case, for programming
purposes, the computer should be treated as 32-bit. If your customer is
using 64-bit Windows, however, things will change. On 64-bit operating
systems, you should use the 64-bit version of Python. Windows x64 can run
32-bit programs but the 32-bit programs can't load the 64-bit DLLs and
vice-versa so you might see an error like the one you posted.. Try using the
AMD64 version of python and see if that fixes the problem for them.
