HP DeskJet 960 and ScanJet 5300 on Vista Ultimate vs on XP Pro

I'm dual booting Vista Ultimate and XP Pro. The abovementioned hardware works
fine under XP. The machines work also under Vista (DeskJet drivers from
Vista, ScanJet drivers from HP, XP version). The problem I'm having is that
under XP both machines work smoothly and quietly, but under Vista the DeskJet
is more noisy and jerky, and the Scanjet starts and stops. It finishes the
entire scan, but the scanning process starts and stops along the way. Has
anyone else noticed this difference in operating quality between Xp and
Vista? Is there an explanation?

Possibly shortage of RAM -- how much do you have installed? What does
the gadget tell you about CPU/RAM useage?
