My only copy of Vista came preinstalled and is sufficiently unstable on a
Toshiba laptop that I would never recommend anyone to use it.
I actually got Vista to a useable state - meaning: About the same speed as
the old 1.2 GHz Athlon 64 + 1 Gig RAM - But this time on a Dual core 1.8 GHz
Toshiba A300 lapdog with 3 GB RAM!!
There is a lot to of things switch off but especially: The service
"Superfetch" whitch sucks away all the RAM and "Readyboost" which I will
never use. Since it is a lapdog one can also set the HDD to use maximum
buffering because we have backup power.
On "Windows Features" I killed the following:
Remote Differential Compression*, Removable storage management, Servives for
NFS, Print Services, Windows Fax & Scan, Windows Meeting Space, Windows DFS
Replication Service, Indexing Service.
Anyways:

*responsible for hour-loooong drag & drop Vista Experience via Explorer!!!
Next job is to get dual-boot going!
