Please suggest, if any workaround is available ?

No, I am not aware of any workaround. You will need a 64-bit OS to use ML.

@Christian_Dahlqvist

My system is equipped with 64 bit O/S.

Please don't post images of text as they are hardly readable and not searchable.

Instead paste the text and format it with `</>` icon. Check the preview window.

Based on [this post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2062020/how-can-i-tell-if-im-running-in-64-bit-jvm-or-32-bit-jvm-from-within-a-program) it looks like you might be using a 32-bit JVM.
