Everything runs very smoothly under XP but Vista is very very sluggish, although it's inconsistent - sometimes opening a program is as fast as would be expected, often times it's really slow (taking up to a minute). Likewise browsing the file system or copying files could be fast or it could be really slow.

Then Setup runs its final task, a performance test that could take about 5 minutes. If everything goes well, and you're running fairly modern hardware, It really seems like something is amiss here...

Vista Really slow, what could be a problem !
I can see no justification for Vista. Me either. I will not be putting it on my machine for sure. He mainly wanted it for the games (Halo 2 and that). So why put it on his machine at all?

He says it seems really slow and sluggish. Is that a common experience with Vista? Initially, yes. My work computer is pretty fast now, but when I was setting it up, it was sluggish. Now, the only time I get the UAC prompt is when I start up Visual J# (Visual Studio wants to run in Administrator mode).

I don't bother using anything, other than AV. I really have not found anything on my computers for several years now.

You can't run 64-bit code on a 32-bit compiled o/s. So sayeth Intel. I can't understand your question. I can see that you are trying to blame MS for something, ....

WORKAROUND: use Vista for multiple versions of Access
Did XP run OK? Did you have the long delays? Someone suggested that you use the Vista DVD to do a clean install. ie... do not install XP first. This can be done even if your license is for upgrade. And I mean "clean". Begin by deleting the existing partition. XP wasn't hanging anyways. I didn't really fool around

VPC 2004 SP1 + Vista Premium - Really slow (VM Additions?)
I now realize that Vista really is slow unless you throw a lot of hardware at it. Microsoft claims it will run with 512 megabytes of memory. I had recommended a minimum of a gigabyte, but 2 GB is more like it if you want snappy performance. [...] The most exasperating thing about Vista, though, is the security

Why does Outlook mark RSS feeds as junk mail?
Also, Vista is itself half baked and it is not clear that the latest SP1 revision can get Vista to run anywhere near XP speeds. It remains to be seen if the latest SP1 actually does anything to make Vista worthwhile, as opposed to barely usable. Are you really as incompetent as you sound? Proly! Figures! Frank.
