Unplug the keyboard and mouse, and install a new computer?
You are flying low over the road now. If you want faster, you probably need to reduce overhead. Don't run more than one program at a time.

Try dumbing down the graphics. Go to a 16 bit desktop scheme instead of 32. Turn off all the flashy effects(transparent menus, shadows under icons, etc)
Uninstall unnecessary crap. Add more memory(think XP will take up to 4 gig)

Weel, considering you want your computer to run programs faster, you'll need to try Disk Defragmenting. Follow these directions:
Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter
Also do this,
Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup
They are 2 simple programs that come with your computer that running them occasionally can make your computer speed up a lot faster. I recommend running Disk Cleanup at the end of every night. Disk Defragment you should run every month or so. If this does not help, or you already run such programs, spyware can greatly cause computers to slow down. Click the link below and download/install Ad-Aware and run a full system scan immediately.
