Today Microsoft released some hot fixes (not on auto update yet) that make some Major speed improvements.

Microsoft Corp. Tuesday released the two Windows Vista updates that had leaked to the Internet at the end of July, but won’t say when it will begin pushing them to users via Windows Update. Pegged as performance and reliability packs, the pair install a long list of non-security bug fixes, among them speed improvements to wake-from-hibernation, a patch that eliminates the long wait to calculate the time it will take to copy or move large directories, and several that target compatibility glitches with video drivers.
Microsoft even described one of the quashed bugs with the vague but ominous-sounding: “The computer stops responding or restarts unexpectedly when you play video games or perform desktop operations.” All of the fixes, said the company, are new to Vista, and do not replace any existing updates. Users must restart their computer after each update is installed. The performance update, designated KB938979, weighs in at nearly 10MB, and can be downloaded from the Microsoft Download Center. The accompanying support document is also available. Vista’s reliability update, KB938194, is petite by comparison — just 2.1MB. It’s also now available for downloading, and has a KnowledgeBase document that spells out changes.
P.S sorry aztec, your audigy game port still wont work...
