There is a hardware limitation of 2048 on 945gm's so you're outta luck
(I suffer from this too).

You want to search around for work on "Shatter" which will allow this
limitation to be worked around (I presume this is still the optimum
solution to this problem?)

I hope it will work as I quite like my little laptop and am considering
treating it to a SSD + battery upgrade!
