"How does one find the status of System Resources in Windows XP?"

The old GDI and such memory pools are unlimited in size so it has no meaning in this OS. To see how much memory an application is using, just look at the Task Manager.

There is no reason to measure this in Windows NT, 2000, XP, 2003 since (again) there isn't some 64K limit. In the newer OSes, it's just "memory."
