Nicole,

Take a look at the following link which really explains
in simple terms how to configure your system for optimal
memory performance:

I also found this nifty freeware tool a while back for
defragmenting the files that the standard Windows defrag
tool won't do easily. Basically just install the
program, run it while Windows is active, and the system
files will be defragged at the next Windows start-up:

Hope this helps.

Mikey.
