[Wine] Limiting memory for MM9

Greetings,

Might & Magic IX had even problems on my old Win98SE, except if i were
running special Nvidia drivers. So i wasn't surprised that i had similar
problems on wine.

Now, with nvidia-drivers 180.42, i have made a new try on wine 1.1.17
and it seems to run fine. But there is a problem.

Switching from the game to e.g. inventory using the key i takes a very
long time, about 50 seconds. Because this has to be done often this is
quite annoying.

The reason for this long time might be, that mm9 thinks, that there is
not enough memory. Look at this screenshot from the setup.

mm9 wants at least 64KB und finds only 2 GB. *g*

So, is there a way, wine can fake a reasonable amount of memory seen by mm9?
