you don't really need a faster processor right now, it won't help your speed. you need more RAM. put a 256 or 512 MB stick in it and i bet your performance will at least double.

Yup, defiently more RAM. 128 MB of RAM is kinda "obsolete" now. You'll get a a 40% speed boost by adding an additional 256MB, and probably 50% by adding 512 more. Your processor is just fine. You're going slow because Win XP is a huge memory hog, and 128 doesn't really cut it. Hope this helps.
