Yesterday I received my Vista Ultimate.
The installation was horrifying, the speed of the system unbelievable bad.
(boot: 10 minutes, unzipping a 10MB file: 25 minutes, opening a window: up to
10 seconds. the performance index (don't know if thats the right english word
for it) was 1,2)

After many tests und frustrating re-installations of win I figured out, that
the RAM caused this problem. Removing 2GB of the installed 4 made the system
running how it should rund. The Index climbed up to 4,3.

Now my question is: how can I use all my memory? the way it works at the
moment is no real satisfaction.

some info about my system:

- Windows Vista Ultimate, 64Bit
- CPU: Intel Core2Duo 6600 (2,4Ghz)
- RAM: 4GB (4x1) G.E.I.L. PC5300, CL 3-4-4-8
- Mainboard: Asus P5N32 SLI SE Deluxe (nForce4 intel 16x)
- HD: 3x Samsung 400GB, Raid0 (Raid 5 doesn't work at all, terrible speed,
propably the nforce driver)
- Grafics: Asus EN7950GX2 (1GB memory)

I wonder if the problem is all about the beta nvidia nForce driver or if
this problem might be a bug of windows itself.

thanks for your help,
