32 bit is totally fine. And I thought best buy were nubs? And they overcharge for like, everything.

If it worked before, something broke. Maybe a bad installation of something or viruses. My guess is on that. There's a bunch of free virus programs out there, but if you're getting BSODs and beeping, it sounds like it might be really messed up beyond repair. Reformat as a last resort, but in the mean time scan for viruses, and spyware and crap.

Some spyware programs:

Your comp might be overheating. Download coretemp and see what your temperatures are for the CPU.
