No, there is nothing that you can do. If you want to use all the
installed RAM you will have to move to a 64-bit Windows version or use
one of the Server versions.

Hello Gary:

It doesn't use all of the installed RAM because XP will only address a total
of 4gb, some of which is occupied by the motherboard.
However, you system may well be able to use some of the 4th stick. Depending
upon how much resource your motherboard is, you may well see 3.3GB usable.

Assume Windows 7 or Vista would recognize the RAM!?!?!?!

The 32bit versions see it but can't use it, just as yours can't. To be able
to see AND use 4gb or more, you have to run a 64bit operating system..

ONLY a 64 bit OS will utilize it.
