I'm not going to give you the answer that you hoped for. Since your motherboard supports a maximum of 4 GB, it doesn't support memory remapping. You'll have to get a new motherboard that supports memory remapping and then Vista 64 will be able to address all 4 GB of RAM.

Took this from Gigabite's website;

Memory 4 DDR II DIMM memory slots (supports up to 4GB memory)
Supports 1.8V DDR II DIMM
Supports dual channel DDR II 667/533/400 DIMM

* Due to standard PC architecture, a certain amount of memory is reserved for system usage and therefore the actual memory size is less than the stated amount.

You thread also refers to a 945 chipset based motherboard, therefore the same limitations applied (as clearly pointed out by Mondoman).
