Need help increasing resources

Hi,
Due to the early onset of Alzheimer's disease or whatever, I find it very
helpful to have many windows open (my substitute for poor short term
memory). I seldom shut my computer down and after a period of a few weeks I
typically have a total of around 45 windows open. Its a mix, like 20 to 30
windows explorer, a few HTAs, 10 or more internet explorer, a couple
Firefox, some notepads, hex editor, script editors, etc. Anyhow, at some
point the system becomes unstable and new windows won't open. Or, if I
close some windows, then I can open new ones, but within a couple of weeks
the system will typically crash when I try to open something.
I've got a 1.7GHz Celeron with 1GB Ram (none shared with video) with WXP SP2
but few or no updates.
I'm hoping someone will share info on how to view the resources that may be
in short supply and how to increase them, so that I can make changes, see
that the system is using those changes, and then test that I can open more
windows without problems.
.
