According to this:
ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_dimension_desktops/dimension-9100_owner%27s%20manual_en-us.pdf

...under "Specifications":

Maximum memory: 4GB.


The el6 x86_64 kernel is capable of addressing 3TB (with a theoretical
limit of 64TB) of RAM, according to this chart:

So, the limit is in your hardware, not the kernel you're using.
