I could be mistaken, but I thought 32-bit Windows was fully capable of addressing up to and including 4 gb (4096 mb) of physical memory.

Yes Windows vista 32 can see 4 gigs of memory, but that is total memory. Your videocard ,an 8800 GTS, also takes up 640 mb of that total system memory. So out of your 4 gigs of RAM you only see about 3.3 or so of it going to use.
