For a pentium 4?

You could try Win7 though and see how it works out^^

I had Win7, and after a year, it bitched like hell, my FPS in games used to get really god damn low, 30FPS when playing CS, gets me fucking furious, and i when i used to log into my user, for the first 30 minutes, you feel like, you're on Team Viewer with someone, which used to get me really furious.

Exactly. Don't blame the little 7.. =P
Reinstall Win7. If it worked just fine before, it should be fine again.
It's probably because of some other programs.
btw, My laptop was acting weird when I installed MySQL SDK.. (10x slower)

I like XP because it's epic. All are them are OK, but Vista (I regret getting) sucks (read above quote).

Actually, on recommended Win7 specs, Win7 works better than XP, both performance and gaming. Also, I had an old laptop, Pentium 4 2.00GHz and 512MB RAM, it took 40 sec to boot up and it was all good. I've no idea why it's so terrible for you. Maybe you installed the
64-bit version? Your PC is clearly 32-bit.

Windows 7 ofc.
XP is just using way too much resources which makes it very slow, especially for gaming (That is MY opinion :P)
However, people say that W7 uses more RAM, and I think that's true.

Then you installed something that was slowing down your PC. Win7 should be faster.
Maybe it's what PLEOMAX said.

Coding and gaming is always perfect for XP
Windows 7 is more like for business etc.

The benchmark has shown that Windows 7 gaming is slightly faster than XP's. Hoping to see even better gaming in Windows 8.
