First let me say thank you for all the Super enhancements to the new Hoster 4.x.

I have read the forum about the Vista issues and I am glad I did, as I was about to scrap my old faithful Sony VAIO laptop having read that Hoster 4.x needs at least .8ghz of processor speed. My VAIO is only .4

When I installed the new release, if was very slow in cueing. I then read the info and found the recommended processor speed info. Problem is, there is no processor upgrade for my laptop and I cannot buy a new laptop without Vista, which I have been avoiding since it first came out, for my home use and for my non-karaoke business use.

The catch 22 is that my karaoke laptop is too slow and I cannot get a new one.

So, my question: I have removed all virus scan and unnecessary programs that I am aware of and it did help. Norton was taking way too much space and memory. What else can I do to make my old Sony quicker?

Thanks..and I hope Vista gets sorted out soon so I can upgrade my laptop.
