Vista - Slow User Switching

Slow User Switching

Please help. The exact same PC used to have Windows XP Pro, and FUS was very
fast. Now that I've upgraded to Vista, FUS takes about 40 seconds just to
get to the account selection page. Then another 10 seconds to switch to the
already logged in account.

I've looked at the Performance/Reliability logs, but nothing jumps out. How
can I figure out what's taking so long? I've tried uninstalling all
extraneous services, and disabled most hardware devices, but no luck.

My machine is a Pentium 4, dual core, 3.2GHz with 1GB RAM, with a 4.3
Windows Experience Index. I'm running Vista Home Premium, 32-bit.

Please, please help.
Cheers,
-Dan.
