I have installed Windows XP and Me in vbox on PCLinuxOS.
XP runs much more quickly than does Me.
Is there anything I can do to speed up Me ?
TIA

Sorry, should have said Vbox 2.2.

VB is more optimized for running XP than ME. And XP is also better at running on virtualized hardware. Check your CPU usage for example, I think that when you run ME, the CPU is at full load.
