Use Performance Monitor and SQL Profiler.

Check out sql-server-performance.com for which counters you should use. Performance Monitor data is fairly complex to analyze. You should purchase a Windows book that specifically deals with performance monitor.

IOW, it's too lengthy for us to just start typing here.
