Pro Tools LE 7.4 on Vista Home Premium?

Calling all Pro Tools buffs!:

Straight to the point. I have my heart set on the Mbox 2 Mini with Pro Tools LE 7.4. Digidesign supports Vista Business and Ultimate Edition, but they basically say use Home Premium at your own risk (untested). Here's my questions:

Looking at my System Info below, do I have enough "oomph" to run it?

Is Vista Home Premium considered a 32-bit OS?

When I go to my computer's System Information, here is what I currently have:

OS Name: Microsoft® Windows Vista™ Home Premium
Version: 6.0.6000 Build 6000
System Manufacturer: HP-Pavilion
System Model: GX770AA-ABA a6319fh
System Type: X86-based PC
Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU E2180 @ 2.00GHz, 2000 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s)
Total Physical Memory: 2,037.69 MB
Available Physical Memory: 1.09 GB
Total Virtual Memory: 4.19 GB
Available Virtual Memory: 3.17 GB
Page File Space: 2.28 GB

So in summary, does it appear that I'm good to go on the Pro Tools LE 7.4?

Any help and ideas will be greatly appreciated, as I'm seriously ready to start recording at home again.

That definitely eases my mind.

Did you have any problems with drivers during the install?

If you don't mind, can you explain how you hooked everything up?
