Is the main user account set up as an 'admin' or 'standard' user? I had
a similar problem after I purchased my computer. I was using my admin
login all the time early on to install programs and hardly ever used my
'standard user' login. Over time I noticed a gradual decrease in speed
in my admin account. I've been using my 'standard user' account daily
for the last 4 months with no decrease in speed. The only time I use my
'admin' account is for installing and uninstallin programs and
maintenance.
Maybe because administrator tasks can only run under an admin account and
it is running needed tasks that makes it seem slower? I expect that is
temporary until Vista self tunes itself. I only use the admin account on
Vista so have never tested it to see if there is a difference.
