I would start with cleaning the registry (winASO)

I would move on to malware (spybot, ad aware)

Free virus scans come next (AVG)

nice clean reboot before moving on to the boot-config. are you playing your 3D games with the bare minimum 15 Processes? No? why on Earth not? Create a custom boot config just for games. watch your heavy-load framerates double or triple!

I have half the machine you have:

A64 3500+
1GB value RAM
Nvidia 7950GT 512MB RAM

And I play with everything on MAX 1400x900 (20-60 FPS). See the Screenshot thread, I posted shots this morning. If you're just itching to spend money, I'll be more than happy to kick you in the nuts for a crisp $100 -- far cheaper than letting these component manufacturers continue to kick you in the nuts every 1.5 years.
