Re: is vista basic enough?
If your graphics card is not aero compliant, that registry hack will not work.
You can minimise the boot time by disabling DEP. Which CPU are you using?
The recommended way to use Vista is to hibernate it instead of shut down. It will boot within 8 seconds, as it does here. Shut down is not required. Maybe once every 5 days. If I don't need to boot into Mac, I don't shutdown Vista.
One warning, if you are using Vista in dual boot then if u hibernate then next time on restarting your computer from power on it will boot directly to Vista & will not show the dual boot menu.
