That is the most annoying thing...the constant disc thrashing. And I have now turned off the search service. which has helped..but need to turn off a few other things. I think Vista is smart enough to turn this all off when you are on battery however.

One think I like about Vista is the ability to store several network setups. and it seems to automatically detect which one to use. fantastic when you are like me and need to move from home to office to client. Each having its one specific configuration.

I would make sure you have the latest video and device drivers. My system crashed and hung quite often. and it was crappy drivers which were at fault. After a year it has become pretty solid.
