I downloaded the web installer here but when trying to install it just fails:

Setup could not install the following component: Microsoft .NET Framework 4

Or is it true that VCE2010 can only be installed on 64 bit os?

No, It isn't true. I installed both Visual C# 2010 Express, and Visual C++ 2010 Express on a Windows-7 32-bit netbook.
.NET Framework 4.0 supports Windows XP SP3, on both 64-bit and 32-bit architectures; its prerequisites (Windows Installer 3.1, and Internet Explorer 5.01) should be fulfilled by Windows XP SP3.

Do you have an internet connection on this computer? I Guess the Webinstallation reloads some files during installation process. You could try to download and install .NET Framework 4 manually here, but I assume that there will be more than .NET missing.

Although it didn't work for you, using the ISO images worked for me. You can download the 2010 ISOs from MSDN, and run them with Daemon Tools Lite.
