It seems that you don't know anything about color depth so I would suggest reading this wiki :)
just to be clear -
Your monitor can display up to 24bits of color (that is 8bits per channel ). 32bit color depth means that it uses additional 8bits for transparency (alpha)
Color depth have NOTHING to do with cpu/software artitecture (so it doesn't matter if Your windows 32/64bit or Your cpu is 32/64bit it's totally different story :) )

i know about that stuff but my system is a 32bit OS not a 64bit OS so shouldn't i only get up to 32bit color depth? max?
can anyone tell me whats happened???
there is NO relations between color depth and a 32bit or 64bit OS
color depth is about your graphic card and your display device
32bit / 64bit OS is about your operating system and your CPU and amount of memory usable...
