    Well the best method wud be to slipstream the sata drivers using nlite, and 64bit is the best os at the moment, and yea it will utilise ur full 4gb of Ram. And regarding the dx10 for xp, i remember reading tht sumwhere in the past but not sure on whether sumthing like tht made through or not. Try googling dx10 for xp or sumthing.

    Also i think there r patches around to allow u to play crysis on dx9
