VMware restricting to 3GB RAM

[Hersh Parikh <hershparikh12@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am running VMware player on CentOS 5.4 and its working fine. However it does not allow me to increase the RAM more than 3GB.  It keeps throwing error stating- "Requested memory size is greater than allowed maximum of 3072 MB. Could not initiate memory hot plug." 

I understand from few threads that 32bit OS has this kind of limitation but I am able to understand why I am seeing this issue when I am using 64bit OS and VMware player is also for 64bit. 

Regards
Hersh
