You need to have 64bit Vista to move higher.... Or get a mac, which can do 16GB.
It would be handy if Vista let you tweak that maximum.

32 bit memory holes suck... on one of my servers with 4GB of RAM there's a loss of about 768MB at boot. That loss can probably be reduced by lowering the allocated video RAM in the BIOS, but it's production server now.
