winME sucks from a fresh install, but with patience you can turn off the stuff that makes it crash (active folders, for a start) and apply patches.
98SE is obviously the better choice.
but i can ASSURE you that after a while all win 9x and ME will run slow. they need to be rebooted after about 1 day. the memory and resources management is crap.
XP shouldnt be like that. are you sure you havent got some bad program leaking memory, or spyware?
anyway my final conclusion is to dual boot.
98se for dos games
winxp for the internet and work etc
