Did you do an 'over the top' upgrade of your XP installation? If so then try booting into Safe mode, backing up any necessary data to another hard drive, and then starting over with a clean install of Vista. It sounds like your upgrade install is a horror story that's best forgotten rather than fixed.

If you upgraded with a clean install then did you have the system overclocked when you were installing? If so then set everything back to default speeds (especially RAM) and try again.
