You will not get any noticable amount of speed out of that computer. You could try putting more ram in that may help to a certain extent.

You would be better off installing Win 98 or 2000 on it...

Wombat is right. Windows xp requires a lot more ram to operate at its full potential. At the least 512 but preferably 1 gig would be better. Once the hardware issues are taken care of then there are a few tricks to help speed it along. But without the extra memory ....all software tricks will just not make any noticeable differences.
