Any suggestions?

Is it same machine ?
If so the `cygrunsrv -S cygserver` is starting in both case the 64bit version and you can not see it as process in 32bit.

The problem is due that the services "cygserver" have a unique name
and the last architecture to install it overwrites any precedent
version.

One workaround is to have two different services for the two
 architectures.

The declaration is located in the registry on

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\services\cygserver
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\services\cygserver
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\cygserver

You can rename it as

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\services\cygserver64

I suggest to rename also the "DisplayName"

Than install cygserver on 32bit
To avoid confusion, I than renamed it as

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\services\cygserver32
