I've seen Windows patches that cause this sort of problem. They may prevent you from allocating that much contiguous memory at runtime. You can fix this problem by rolling back the patch in question - it should be pretty easy to look at your Windows Update log, see the patches applied, then read the patch descriptions to figure out which is the culprit - or by starting the CF service earlier, using the DependOnService key to control service startup order.
