It should work regardless of OS, but jury's out on whether it will do anything for you on Windows XP 32-bit.

FWIW, when I used the 4Gb patch on SH4.exe, I noticed that the game's RAM use still didn't go above 1.6 GB, even though I'm using Windows 7 64-bit and have RAM to spare when running SH4. So I don't know why SH4 became more stable, no longer crashing near Tokyo Bay (which was where I was having a CTD problem previously). One might think that if SH4 were crashing because it ran out of RAM, it would gladly grab 2GB or more once allowed to do so, but it doesn't.
