ya windows xp needs 512mb imo just to run good..
i had 256mb and it was annoyin as hell

something i did was increse or decrease your page file
page file = space on hard drive that is used like RAM when RAM is used up

but try that.. i have a gig of RAM now..
but i also got a new HD when i did that..
so i incresed my page file since i went form a 40gig to a 160gig
and i lost performance.. more space use equals slower performance..
atleast when its TOO big of a page file

and DDR RAM is cheap..... RD RAM aint lol

check out EVEREST Home Edition it gives you a good idea of how your computer is using RAM and what not.. types and all that

if your gonna upgrad.. depeanding on your MOBO and how many slots you have and how they have to be used..

try and go to a GIG of RAM.. 512mb is an ok upgrade..
but a GIG is a REAL upgrade..

at this point i want 2 gigs just cause i dont think 1 is enough for how i like to use my comp lol
