I have a Dell Dimension 8200 with 1.6 GHZ CPU and 128MB
RD-RAM on a 5200rpm hard disk (defragmentated) of 20GB.
I do not have many programs on the startup and the
computers takes about 3min from the entrence of the
password to log-in untill it is operational.
It has been quicker before! When it was new!

What can I do to improve its startup and performance,
without buying new merory as they are really expensive!

I have all my huge files on a 120GB 7200rmp hard disk
conected as slave. so I have been able to clean the
master (wtih XP installed on it).

please any help,
 
after logon open task manager and paste a screenshot of all running
processes, then it will be possible to tell what slows the system down
also increase RAM size..double it...quadruple it..
