But there's a registry key you're able to enter and bypass this limit
No there is no way.

Have also a look here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_GB_barrier
32-bit windows can only address 4gb of memory and quite often it will only display 3.5Gb or so.  There is nothing you can do about this - it is a physical limitation of a 32-bit OS and no amount of registry tweaking will make the OS see more than 4Gb.

The advice you have already been given by the other two experts who have posted is correct.

Ok guys, Thx - I've heard that it's possible, but when all of you say otherwise - i guess I was wrong.
