Try one thing!

Goto: "Windows\prefetch" folder and delete all files in this folder!

It should help!!!

also run the 'services.msc ' command and disable all the unwanted services,it makes a hell of a difference on systems with low memory.Take a look at *www.overclockersclub.com/guides/windows_xp_services.php before u change any settings.
