I had many BSOD's all with different causes, which made troubleshooting impossible. The boot up was slow, sometimes it would be 10 minutes before i could use it. I tried to improve performance by turning off most of the visual features and tweaked it as much as i could, but to little improvement.
The people that I know that have Vista running well have all reformatted and reinstalled Vista. Then Vista runs well.
