Win 2003 64 bit vs 32/64bit ASP.NET

hello

Apparently you can register ASP.NET 32 bit with IIS running on Windows 2003 64 bit (But "ASP.NET tab" would be missing, see image below, from MMC snapin, not sure if this means something is broken)

Now, say, if you compile (running Visual Studio on 64bit Windows) you application with /platform:x86 switch (thus targeting 32bit - see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...z4(VS.80).aspx) and deploy to IIS (which is now registered with 32bit ASP.NET), would it work? I don't have 64 bit Windows to test from home at the moment.

Thanks!
