The following worked just fine in Windows 7 (will copy and paste here so it's archived in case the site ever disappears):

Rugxulo reports (3 June 2008) that the following workaround appears to eliminate the problem in Vista with Service Pack 1 (SP1). Use a registry editor (such as REGEDIT) to create the new (REG_DWORD) registry value DpmiLimit under the key

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\WOW

Now edit the value to reflect the maximum amount of memory (in bytes) that you wish to make available to console applications (DOS command boxes). Thus, a value of 128000000 (decimal) would make 128 million bytes available to DOS boxes, as opposed to the default value of 32MB; a hex value of 0x7A12000 would have the same effect. It appears that 32MB is the minimum allowed; the maximum has not been determined, but is almost certainly 2GB or less. You will probably need administrator privileges to implement these steps, and you may have to reboot before the new setting takes effect. 


Thanks!
Frank
