Running 32 bit oracle on 64 bit windows

 My oracle client version is 10.2.0.1 32 bit for windows. My OS is windows 7 in 64 bit. The client installation run fine. I can connect to sqlplus ok.  But I couldn't connect to any applications such as access to pull out data from oracle. I searched online and found this note: 334528.1 on this site. According to the note, I downloaded the patch 4923787. But when I try to install the patch, I got the following error: opatch failed with error code=255.

java.lang.NullPointerException

 at oracle.sysman.oii.oiix.OiixPathOps.concatPath<OiixPathOps.java:553>

Howdy, Stranger!
