It was my understanding that DX10 was a unique feature of Vista that wouldn't have worked on previous versions of Windows.
Officially yes. Unofficially it's already possible to run DX10 on XP. Unfortunately, it involves some serious shenanigans, and DX10b will probably bork it.

Or you could get a proper operating system and not worry about this silly 4GB 'wall'. As of kernel version 2.4, Linux OSes will handle up to 64GB. And that's good enough for me.
