You probably can't. This is because the way the 32 bit hardware works - some of the physical address space is occupied by bits of the hardware. For more information, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929605.
If you install the 64 bit version of Server 2003 R2, you might be able to use all 4 GB of RAM. I found that some hardware (e.g. IBM ThinkCentre 8143) can not use all 4 GB of physical RAM even with 64 bit Windows.

It is perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.

i am running Windows Server 2003 ent Edition 32-Bit edition with SP1 on Dell
Precision 370(x86 based computer) with NVIDIA 6600 PCI Express 256MB Graphics
card.
I have installed 4 GB of RAM(2GB per memory Module). i have enabled /PAE in
boot.ini even after that my computer shows 3.00GB in system properties. It
shows total physical memory to be 3,143,736KB. how can i address full 4GB
memory given the fact that i have installed 4GB of physical memory.
