Is there a way to view the number of dirty pages (cached file pages that need to still be written to disk) in Windows Server 2003?

In Windows 7, for example, I can use Performance Monitor and use the "Dirty Pages" counter (one of the cache counters). This counter does not seem to be available in Server 2003. Also on Windows 7 (and other later systems), I can use Sysinternals RAMMap and effectively see the dirty pages on a file-by-file basis.

Is there something similar for Server 2003?
