my bare minimum services for home user for internet on ethernet. this will speedup vista alot. lots of services turned off with only 10 automatic services running and alot disabled. you can get it down to 8 if you dont need automatic updates. disable Background Intelligent Transfer Service and Windows Update to do this. alot services set on manual so if they needed they will start. so in all about 20 services running in total. if you only have 1 gig of memory to run vista this will give good speed up. services such as readyboost are better turned off. both pictures the same. just listed differently. first pic is listed alphabetical for easy configuration.
