Description:
I accidentally downloaded the 64 bit version of Lazarus and installed it on Windows XP (32 bit) today. I know, I know, I was half asleep and on the phone while downloading and installing. :-[
Anyway, the install completed (all the way through) and then, of course, I got "not a valid Windows 32 application" right at the very end - the first sign that something wasn't right. :-[
Suggestion: get the installer to check at the start of installation and halt installation / display an error message if there is some glaring issue (like the above).
Anyway, it's just a suggestion. Take it or leave it.
Steps to reproduce:
Download 64 bit installer and install on Windows 32 bit.
