Force install Matlab 2013a 32bit in Windows8 64bit

I need to install on my pc provided by Windows 8 professional 64 bit, Matlab 2013a (DVD version) but at 32bit, because I have some libraries that are compiled at 32bit.

I tried to search how to do in this case, and I found that a solution to force the 32 bit installation was starting the setup in the folder "bin/win32" I tried but without success. The microsoft installer started but after few seconds it desappear and the process is cancelled.

I tried also to run the SetupSimple checking the corrispondant option...few files are copied in my HD but the installation don't start.

Anyone has a suggestion?

Best regards, Danilo
