Good morning I bought my son a used Dell Optiplex 990 that is running windows 7 x86 and he wants to play fortnite but it will not download because the game requires a 64 bit processor i believe , what would i need to do to make it compatible?
Windows 7 x86

You have to purchase a 64-bit version of Windows 7 or higher. You may still be eligible for a Windows 10 upgrade as well which would allow you to choose the 64-bit version. If you decided to upgrade then I would highly recommend creating backup image with one of the following programs in case there are issues which are fairly common.
Some people have been successful upgrading as follows.

I think it can't be solved, only via Windows x64 system

See the following link for the office versions that are compatible with Windows 10. Also as mentioned i have ran office 2007 on several computers without issues as well.
