Here an other build:
http://www.henrynestler.com/colinux/testing/pfn-check-0.7.3/20080303-pfn-check/workarround/

There have limited the memory to the value we got from ntkernel (1920 in
your case). With that workarround coLinux should run on your machine :-)

Please test this, and give an result.
Please remember to reload the driver, before you starts this build!

  colinux-daemon.exe --remove-driver
  colinux-daemon.exe --status-driver   <<--- should say not installed
  colinux-daemon.exe --install-driver
  colinux-daemon.exe --status-driver   <<--- should say:
       Driver compiled on: Mon Mar  3 22:05:55 2008
