a couple of thoughts, 768mb is little ram for XP Pro, and two, have you done a virus/malware scan recently? or a complete maintenance program?, if it was working just fine and then started doing this slowdown, that can be a sign of a HDD that is about to go out. try running disk check, and download a program called speedfan @ http://www.almico.com/sfdownload.php
it has a feature that will check the health of your hard drive.
