No guarantees but you can try the following to improve the time it takes for Windows Vista to boot to the Desktop.  It has worked for me every time.

1.  Run MSConfig

2.  Click Services tab -> hide all Microsoft services -> uncheck these if they exist: xaudio, vongo, stllsvr,roxmediad89, installdriver table manager, cyberlink background, cyberlink task

3.  Click on the Boot tab ->advanced options

4.  Change number of processors to "2" and check "maximum memory."
