This system is a peice of crap by today's standards, but after I tweak the install of Window XP on this system it will run faster, use less RAM, and boot up times will be lowered.
For comparison at the end of this guide I recorded the boot up times of Windows XP right after a default install.
Boot up (time
to get to logon screen) = 59 Seconds
RAM used at startup = 60 MB
Processes = 15
Time to load after logging in = 35
Seconds
