Get yourself a real computer, not some 200$ Dell laptop, and you will any OS's run perfectly smooth on it. Or stop getting illegal copies of Windows that are badly cracked where its core is all damaged.
It's been since June 2007 I run Vista, and I regret waiting that long. I was running on WinXP SP2 before that. I decided just for kicks to downgrade to XP... and OMG XP is SOOOO BUGGY! Take 10min to have the delete dialog box, you can skip or retry unable to delete/move/copy/cut files, tooltip hides behind the taskbar, unstable network connection, inconsistent volume per games/music player/video player as you cannot change each program volume. I don't need to have a spyware program (yet), and I can disable my anti-virus continuous guard on files (increase system performance), I just make it scan once a week, and everything I download off a non-trusted site. And I don't even need a firewall, Vista firewall is great.
I see absolute no decrease in performance in gaming or application... Windows Super-fetch does an excellent job at reducing its "reserved space" on the RAM when you need it. And NO I don't have quad-SLI Geforce 10800 GTX 1TB of RAM. I just have a Geforce 6600GT 128MB (for now).
Also if you have Vista Business or Ultimate, open up gpedit.msc, it's packed with interesting options.
Sure it starts faster, but heck I never close my computer, there is no point in doing so, unless you know you won't be using it for some time.
