R2015b was the last version that support 32 bit MS Windows. The new R2016a and onward do not support 32 bit Windows.

You could ask Mathworks Sales for a trial, but you would have to do so specially. They would be a bit reluctant because they would know that even if you bought a license, you would have no reason to buy upgrades later as none of them would work on your operating system.

My mother's hardware was the last generation CPU that could not be upgraded to 64 bit operating system -- and it must be a decade old, purchased when Windows XT was still current. If your hardware is newer than that you should be considering an operating system upgrade.
