Whilst there are some tweaks you can try to optimize windows, they mainly reduce the memory usage. Although they might slightly speed up windows by reducing the amound of disk swapping, they are unlikely to make a big difference.

My general advice is to go through the "services" mmc snap-in in XP, and disable anything you do not need. Then look at the "run" entries in hklm\software\ms\win\currentuser and remove any "junk" which runs in the background. This will probably help in reducing the start up time of windows XP, but if you are expecting to make your computer "200% faster" you will be dissapointed. Fine tuning a few settings will not make a 2.4GHz P4 with 512 PC3200 ram act like a 4.8GHz PC with PC6400 RAM
