This may be a limitation of what you have in the config.sys :
  HIMEM.SYS, EMM386.SYS (or commercial enhanced versions - QEMM, 386MAX)
  Without HIMEM.SYS you are limited to 64Mb.  To access more than 64Mb you 
    *must* have HIMEM.SYS from Win95 or Win98 in your config.sys!
  With EMM386 you may be limited to 16Mb, 32Mb or some amount based on which
    version you have.  I recommend removing EMM386 or using the NOEMS NOVCPI
    keywords.
