Your specs are killing you.  I have an old machine with AMD 550 and 512 meg of RAM 
that isn't much better.  Also found that the new Adobe and especially Open Office 
were killers and had to remove them.  Just totally bogged the machine down.  On my 
systems, Open Office had some definate bugs.  IE6 takes a lot more RAM and horsepower, 
as do most newer apps today.  More RAM would help, but the processor speed is a big 
problem here also, as would be the slower buss and memory speed as compared to new 
systems today....  

If there are some problems, they may show up in the Event Viewer so check there for 
anything obvious for starters...
