What? I have Intel Core 2 Duo and it is not 64bit processor. Kat's processor also is not (check intel's documentation).
Have you even tried installing XP64 or Vista64? Core2's are 64-bit processors and should therefore run 64-bit OSes. I've just bought a new laptop that's a Core2Duo and that is 64-bit capable, although I'm running 32-bit Vista on it.
Yes, Intel's Core 2 Duo has 64-Architecture, but it is not 64-bit processor, read this:

and read this (Kat's proc):
