Launch Task Manager and navigate to the Startup section. Turn off any unnecessary applications, particularly those that affect performance significantly. You may also activate fast boot in the BIOS if available.

Consider alternatives to purchasing an SSD. You can turn off startup processes via the Task Manager, though this effect is limited.

No, fast boot does not affect the ability to enter BIOS during startup or any other function beyond reducing boot time.

You must still be able to access the BIOS via fast boot, simply press the designated key repeatedly.

It speeds up the startup process only. It doesn’t stop you from booting from USB drives or change any other functionality. If it’s not a fast boot, there must be another setting that blocks BIOS access, requiring a Windows program to bypass it. The exact name of that setting isn’t clear to me.

Obtain an SSD and install it as your boot drive with Windows installed. Ensure your motherboard's main SATA controller is configured for AHCI. Restrict startup programs to essentials. Upgrade to a modern system with UEFI support, activate it, then: turn off the Compatibility Support Module in UEFI (requires UEFI hardware), enable Fast Boot, turn off unused components in UEFI, and launch Windows 8 or 10. Perform a clean installation with UEFI enabled to allow Windows to set up properly.
