HOW TO: Set Performance Options in Windows XP

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;308417
-------------------
Also try this:
In Windows Explorer or Control Panel,
click Tools in the Menu bar,
click Folder Options,
click View tab,
in Advanced Settings list, find and check mark "Remember each folder's view settings".
--------------------
Also to say, you should get more RAM.
XP uses all of, at least, 128 to run properly,
and works better.
It slows things down if you have programs
starting and running in the background during Startup.
Also when you open programs, things are slower
if they have to take RAM away from XP.
You should have enough RAM (above 128) for each program you run at the same time.
