Can't install Microsoft Visio Standard 2013 because I already have 64 bit Office 2010 installed

Here's what happened - Windows 7 64 bit Pro SP1

Work laptop had Office 2007 32 bit installed

Purchased Visio 2013 Standard on Amazon

Got a legitimate product key and followed the link to download the software - 32 bit, I believe

Installed Visio 2013 Standard 32 bit

Purchased Office 2010 Pro on Amazon

Got a legitimate product key and installation media - both 32 bit and 64 bit versions

Uninstalled Office 2007 32 bit.  Did nothing to Visio 2013 Standard.

Installed Office 2010 Pro 64 bit

Had a problem with the laptop.  The (un)help(ful) desk uninstalled Visio 2013 Standard.  Found the problem was the antivirus (what the heck is Panda Antivirus anyways??)

Tried to reinstall Visio 2013 Standard, getting an error message saying it can't install because 64 bit Office has been detected.  Now I can't find a link for Visio Standard 2013 64 bit.  There is 64 bit Professional version, but my key for Standard won't work for Professional.

Called MS tech support on Sunday and spent over an hour getting hung up on and bounced from call center to call center (tech support, store, pro support, home support, and back).  Called back on Monday and finally was transferred to someone in tech support, I believe, who said MS Visio 2013 Standard is only available in 32 bit.  Is this true?
