One note though.

If you integrate some addons or hotfixes, IE7 in particular, it can create some files bigger than 8 chars so DOS mode would report missing file.

It would be best to initiate setup from the other 32bit Windows or boot from CD, I know that you can't do that now but so you know in the future.
