Won't work. SharePoint Server 2010 requires a 64-bit processor and O/S, no exceptions.

Q: Does VB support 64 bit guests?
A: Since version 2.1.0, you can run 64 bit Guests while running a 32 bit Host. The prior requirement for Operating System is only for version 2.0.x. You still need the proper hardware.
You must enable hardware virtualization through your BIOS; software virtualization is not supported for 64-bit VMs.
Note: some HP BIOSES have a glitch, When You ENABLE VT-X/AMD-V, You DISABLE it, so do try both ways.
