You may want to consider upgrading your CPU to a duel core processor. Duel core processors are chips that have 2 processors on one chip. For example, if you had a duel core 3 gig then, in actual fact, you would have 6 gig of processing power. Regarding the 64 bit version of Windows, Jaws or, CT don't work on it at all. I am not sure if Jaws will ever be coded for the 64 bit version of Windows Xp. They may get around to coding it for vista though.
