xp is definetively some slow, in my expeience windows 2000 professional is 
faster.
don forget to apply path 1a, because there several bugs.

In the same page in advanced options you can set adjust performance for 
programs or cache
adjust processos por background process.
see if you have enough virtual memory
defragment (diskepeer)
shutdown services you don't use in your laptop in services window.
Start indexing service
use 256 colors if posible.

All this can improve your performance, obviously the best is to increase memory.

  I set it for best performance from visual effects. I'll see what this does.

  Thanks,

      I have a problem on my Dell 8200 running Windoze XP Prof. SP1.  I run my 
machine 24X7 because I do SETI analysis.  But after about 4-5 days funny things 
happen on the screen and then I get an out of memory message.  As soon as I 
reboot all is back to normal for 4-5 days.

      Windows Task Manager shows 52 processes running.  My machine has 256 MB 
of physical memory.  I have increased my min & max. page memory up to 1026 MB 
per DELL customer service.  Now they say I need more physical memory.  

      Does anyone have an idea what is going on?  It seems to me that not all 
the code is being flushed out of the physical memory and it keeps building up 
until I get this error message.

      Any help will be greatly appreciated.

      Thanks much,
      Ken Janusz, CPIM
