Default XP Professional loading slowly

My laptop now takes an inordinately long time to load Windows - and then to
load my 'personal settings'. I have read somewhere that this is due to the
registry filling up with unused files over time. I believe it is quite simple
to remove these unused files but I don't know how to go about it. Can you
help?

I have XP Professional SP2
