instead of that All-in-Wonder, you should've got a Radeon 9800 or X800... it's 256MB as opposed to 128MB...

If you want to wreck your computer, then there are a lot of ways to speed it up:
· Overclocking
· Ultra-cooling
· Turning off virus protection
· Screwing with Windows config files
On the other hand, that can really mess up your files. There are tons of ways to get viruses into your computer, but a major part of what a virus scanner does is quash the virus when it unpacks itself. A simple self-decompressing archive can sneak by your virus scanner. Screwing with Windows config files will probably not do any irreperable harm, but unless you have every file you want backed up, when you find yourself haveing to format your hardrive, you'll loose lots of data.
Of course, messing with cooling and overclocking can do irreperable damage to your computer unless you know exactly what you are doing. My cousin has spent his entire life as a computer engineer, technician and designer. He forgets in a few minutes more about messing with computers than I will probably ever learn. He still only does things like overclocking on computers he has decided are good only for playing around with. Besides, with modern computers, overclocking has little net effect. If you do it perfectly, you can get a maximum of about 250Mhz additional out of your CPU. Back in the day when tubes were shorter, and processors ran about 100Mhz, maximum, that meant a huge increase in speed. Since a mere 50-100Mhz was fairly easy to achieve, any old tech-savy guy who was willing to risk his 5 grand investment could double his processor speed. Today, that's nothing, and increasing the clockspeed of your computer does you much less than it once did. On a P4 running at 2Ghz, you'd be lucky to get a 2.5% increase in performance. That's half of the numerical percentage increase in clockspeed. (Incidentally, on Macs up to and including the G4, you would still have a massive increase in speed, but that's now changed.)
