RE: Poor FPS in games
My computer is similar to yours (1.8Ghz Geforce FX5200) and what I do to make games run smoother is end tasks, like fatfreechicken does, have no background and run the game in a small resolution (800x600).
@ Joe, those settings will make the computer not lag as much while you are using your computer, but not when you are playing a game because they won't be doing anything anyway. I have turned off those performance settings and it makes a difference when I am moving windows etc.

I haven't tried this but maybe if you play the game in safe mode...
