Is there a way around this?

I have a SQL 2005 with 8 GB of memory that I want to set AWE on.
But the local security policy won't let me, it says:

This setting is not comaptiple with computers running Windows 2000
Service Pack 1 or earlier.
Apply group Policy objects containing this setting only to computers
running a later version of the operating system.

Why does it say Windows 2000 SP1 or earlier? I'm running on Windows
2003, sp1.
