Which is the desk top manager that you use? The maximum saving can be done by switching over to a lighter desktop manager like fluxbox/window maker/xfce.

There that is the problem please shift to one of the lighter desk top manager and your system will come alive. Let me tell you we run linux on a P2 system with flux box and the sytem is goog for all mandane activites so by comparision you have a super computer.
