XP is actually very bad with memory fragmentation...   You have some 
choices...

1. make sure you start your program first after a reboot, allocate large
chunks of memory first in your program.

2. use xp 64bit.

I did a quick google search and found this:

Generally, if you want to use very large contiguous chunks of memory 
with XP 32 bit,
you are in trouble....   Good luck....
