control panel > system and maintenance tools > left side bar there is a series of options that will let u disable animations, shadows and all that shnizzle........
I did all that crap to it, and have fought with Vista on my laptop for about a year now. I'm going to finally do the best tweak on it that you can do - reformat and load XP.
If you use AVISynth with VirtualDubMod on a regular basis or VideoraiPodConverter .91 then don't even bother wasting your time with vista. It's funks both of those programs up.

I know! Upgrade your Vista to XP Pro and you will be ok

P.S. The most slowest part of Vista is built-in DRM support on driver level. It's not a "fancy shit" and it can't be removed. So windows XP is the only way to go :2 cents
recently bought a notebook from IBM (fuck yeah!), came with Vista. Slow as hell. First thing I did was to format the thing, removed the hidden partition with the Vista restore, install XP pro.. now this lappy runs in circles around my gaming desktop :D
dont have time to read the second right now, but the first is a poor benchmark etst since its only running a 1gb machine and trying it only on 1 proggy. unless all u do is browse the internet u really should have more than 1 gig for vista and u def need to try multiple types of operations not just word to get a proper benchmark
The question now isn't "Is Vista Dead?" It is. The real question is: Can Microsoft get Windows 7 out in time to save its desktop domination? I think Microsoft "could" pull it off. Here's how.
Vista is dead.
That's not what Bill Gates said at a seminar on corporate philanthropy in Miami on April 4, but it might as well have been. What Gates actually said, according to the Reuters report, is that he expects that the next desktop version of Windows, Windows 7, would be released "sometime in the next year or so."
Running Vista with 4gb of Ram, and haven't had a problem yet. Doesn't seem slow either. I'm waiting for something to happen based on what I have read, but so far, so good.
I feel that if really want to run the best performance for Window Vista, RAM is very big issue.
because of this Visual Effects features eating away at your PC’s resources.
To change the setting, go to Control Panel and select Adjust For Best Performance option.
Maybe can choose to Turn Off Aero from the Appearance Tab.
