The only way to install the driver on Vista 4 bit is to digitally sign the driver.

It's not as easy to use as Unlocker but it gets the job done (most of the time) .

Vista 64 will run any 32-bit app but it uses Windows on Windows to do so.
The biggest drawback to vista 64 is running 32 bit apps that expect a 32-bit OS to run on.

If you need more precise instructions, let me know.
I solved this by running regasm with the /regfile option, and replacing HKLM with HKCU in the resulting .reg file .
It's supposed to fail in this case.
Deployment requires admin rights.

To use it first check what BCD entries you have with
BCDEDIT /v
Remember id of wanted entry and then use
BCDEDIT /set "{id}" truncatememory 1073741824
This will limit it to 1 GB .
That will limit your memory.
Use BCDEdit to set truncatememory option.

I worded my question badly .
