Unwanted XP settings in my new Vista

I transferred my old files and settings from XP to my new computer that has
Vista. Now I have some XP settings on my new computer and they seem to be
interfering with some of the new settings. How do I disengage XP without
losing the new stuff? When I look at updates to uninstall there are quite a
few. Can I uninstall all of the updates dated before I set up my new
computer on 3/22/08? They seem to fall into 2 dates, 3/22/2008 and
11/26/2007?

Once you installed Vista it should have taken over most settings. Which settings specifically are being affected by the old XP OS?
