Yes, it supports 4GB:

Dual-Channel DDR2 Delivers up to 10.7 GB/s of bandwidth and 4 GB memory addressability for faster system responsiveness and

And, there is a chipset driver for Windows XP 64:

You might want to double check to make sure your motherboard's other components can handle XP64....

I'm 100% not sure about your particular board, but I do have an old Intel G945 lying around. The back of the box says:

DDR2 667/533/400 SDRAM
Four slots, dual-channel (4GB max)

it should...


the 945g is not even a value chipset.

i have had 4gb on a 946gz which is the value version of the 945g (only has 2 dimms instead of 4dimms). the 945g might even support 8gb actually.

i guess i should frame my question as, will the computer see 4gb or will it be limited to 3.2gb, I was under the impression the bios needs memory remapping or something to see the complete 4gb
