First and for most, get more RAM. 256MB is barely usable.
Take a look in Programs -> Startup and eleminate anything that doesn't belong.
Open up regedit
backup his entire registry
look at the following places and elminate anything not needed:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
That should help :)
