Go start, right click my computer, click properties on the window that opens it will tell you the speed of your processor and the ram installed.
How much RAM pls.
Now with NO applications running and just the desktop press Ctrl Alt Delete. When task manager opens click the performance tab
Below the two graphs is Total Physical memory what is that pls
Underneath is Available - what is that please.

Depending on which variant of the dell optiplex gx280 you have it came with one of five hard drive capacities.
The smallest supplied was 40Gb.
Is it within your knowledge that you have also been receiving messages regarding low disk space.
AND are you aware of the hard drive capacity and more to the point the amount of free space.
Also is that Simms still in the drive.
