I'm not sure such a beast exists.

The largest memory size for which I've seen reports is from the OS/2
DPMI host: a whopping 512MB.  Windows 9X seems to allow close to what
is physically installed, but AFAIK nobody tried to see what it does on
a 4GB machine.  You might also try 386Max, at least ask the vendor
what is the maximum they provide.
