Not sure about the Mac Pro having 16 gigs of ram but i have heard of the system.

Guides on the net are the best place to learn how to overclock. However as your PC is a Compaq and not custom built you will probably find the part of the BIOS for overclocking has been locked so you cannot overclock.

You Could upgrade that 512mb ram a bit

Yeh like another 512mb

Also have you checked for malware which could be making it slow ?

If you want to check click PCHF Prework below and post logs in a new thread within the Hijackthis Logs forum. Then the security team will check for malware.
