For some reason the task manager window doesn't hide behind the other windows.

That's how it's designed to work. You can alter to settings if you wish for it to hide behind other windows.
Look in the top left portion of the Window. Click on
Options. Untick
"Always On Top"

Available memory is the one we're interested in. That shows how much is available for Windows to use.
In your case, 26,200 is way too little.
Anytime that figures dips below 50,000 Window gets starved of physical memory & behaves laggy.
You have only 256 MB of RAM installed on this machine. By today's standard, that's not enough for an XP machine. Ideally you should have at least 512 MB, 1 GiB is even better.
