Many recommend 512mb.
The msconfig app, not sure in which prog.group its contained, shows yr
start-ups and also enables you to stop an app starting. Try to determine
what the app is before stopping - you may need it running -
You can re enable.
AdAware is also useful to use, in conjunction with SpyBot

I have a 55.8 GB hard drive with 46.1GB free. The memory is 255 MB and 55%
utilized. I will look at the application's properties to see if I can stop
them from loading at start up. Thank you for the tip. Any other ideas? I
heard XP runs better with more RAM. It started when I loaded critical
updates for MS Office, which I use for my classes at school. I heard also
that Office works better with more RAM. I have done a complete system virus
scan and also used Spybot. Thanks again!
