Turn off some of the sounds and animations in the graphic setup option (game config program in the BG2 folder) and turn 3D support off.

Also, turn off any applications running within Windows in the background. Those little buggers can eat up a lot of RAM if many are running.

turn the movement sounds off in particular, if you are useing onboard sound which relies wuite heavily on the cpu and uses system memory then your machine will be further bogged down.
