Use objdump, provided with FPC:

C:\lazarus\fpc\3.2.0\bin\x86_64-win64\objdump -f c:\Windows\SysWow64\combase.dll

c:\Windows\SysWow64\combase.dll:     file format pei-i386
architecture: i386, flags 0x0000012f:
HAS_RELOC, EXEC_P, HAS_LINENO, HAS_DEBUG, HAS_LOCALS, D_PAGED
start address 0x1013c090


C:\lazarus\fpc\3.2.0\bin\x86_64-win64\objdump -f "c:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\VGX\VGX.dll"

c:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\VGX\VGX.dll:     file format pei-x86-64
architecture: i386:x86-64, flags 0x0000012f:
HAS_RELOC, EXEC_P, HAS_LINENO, HAS_DEBUG, HAS_LOCALS, D_PAGED
start address 0x00000001800a42a0

(note the file format on the first line)
