Why do some Dell driver Cabs have x64 drivers when they are for 32-bit devices and vice versa?
Hello all, I hope I am in the right forum. I was importing the Dell driver CAB for the Latitude 10 ST2E tablet into my MDT environment and noticed something strange. The Latitude 10 uses a 32-bit processor and most of the drivers I imported, MDT indicated the platform as x86. However, there were 2 drivers that were listed as only x64 platform. Can someone explain why this is? Will this cause any issues with deployment or should I delete them?
I've noticed this for other Dell driver CABs as well. For example, I imported the drivers for the Optiplex 3010, and I just imported the x64 folder, yet there was one driver that was exclusively listed as x86.
Thanks for any info. A screenshot below shows what I am referring to. Thanks!

Thank you for the reply. My apologies, I just realized I made an error in my original post. The devices are ST2s NOT ST2Es. Sorry for the confusion!
The driver cab I downloaded was the latest at http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/enterprise-client/w/wiki/5099.latitude-10-windows-8-1-driver-cab.aspx release number 6YG1M.
