Ram is the best choice. Win98 might be a better choice.
Yes, there are some things. Might alread be some web pages devoted to getting XP to run faster. I'd start with stopping almost every service. Use performance setting to select best performance. Set a single size for swap file. Use defrag often. Use msconfig to stop all start up stuff that you don't need. Might be many other ways.
