Maybe it is good idea to try/test the NT 4.0 ( I know it's NT 4.0 ) Res
KIT tool  imagecfg.exe
To make the executable large memory aware.

Imagecfg -l adsm.exe 

Maybe it works

For what it's worth, we are looking at this, but I cannot commit to if
or when we will do it. If this (or any other change request) is
important for you, you should contact your IBM sales/marketing/account
rep and ask them to open a formal requirement for you.

Regards,

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
