I don't know but I wouldn't be surprised that 64 bit processors running
in 32 bit mode could somehow virtualize up to a 4GB chunk of memory for
their own use. But I should think that would entail multiple instances
of Windows with each running on their own processor. I haven't paid any
attention to Intel machine architecture in about 10 years. Probably too
complicated for me now.
