Post Hardware accelerator problems (computer)

To everyone that knows "stuff" about computers...
Recently my computer has been running slow and when I try to run videos with the hardware acceleration all the way up, it will freeze the program running it(media player, quicktime, Real player...) and I'll have to ctrl,alt,del to get out of it. when I go into the DirectX and turn all the accelerator functions off it's fine, or when I go into the display properties settigs and turn the accelerator functions down it's fine, but I can't run 3-D games now... also, when I close programs the window closes slow, like when a pic is loading on a slow modem computer, thats how my windows close... slow... any ideas?? I'm about to reformat, because it's driving me nuts.
this is what I have...
Gateway Pentium III 750 mhz
386 megs RAM
20 gb drive
3DFX Voodoo 3000 video card
and lots more, but doubt it's the problem
Thanks guys!
