What are some good programs that speed up XP's preformance and stop lagging on most programs?virus scan I know you may have already done it all but try doing it again as a complete procedure (I0ll skip virus scans in the process as you said you have no viruses)
1) Download CCleaner and perform a scan/cleaning
2) Download a registry cleaner (like Eusint Free Registry Cleaner) and perform a cleanup of registry
3) Perform a scan with AD Aware and another for Trojans
4) Remove all the files from
C:\documents and settings [Your name folder]/Local Settings/ Temp
and from
C:\documents and settings [Your name folder]/Local Settings/ Temporary internet files
and from
C:\documents and settings ALL USERS/Local Settings/ Temp
C:\documents and settings ALL USERS/Local Settings/ Temporary internet files
Then go to
C:\Windows\Temp and remove all the files
5) download a registry optimizer/defragmenting program and run it (Like Registry Mechanic)
6)Finally, perform a defrag and reboot.
