Do you have the original recovery CDs/DVD? Or do you know how to install Vista from scratch?

I would recommend backing up any important files you may have on your laptop to a USB drive or DVD. Then reinstall Vista from scratch, to the state it was when your computer was brand new.

There could be a few reasons as to why ur pc might be running slow.

try these
1 defrag ur pc

2. go to msconfig,  that will bring up the system configuration then under start up tab uncheck the programs that you dont want to run at start up.

3. while you are still in system configuration go to boot tab then advance options then put a check on number of processors and change it to 2 or more.

4. download and install Glary Utilities its a Glary Utilities is the #1 free, powerful and all-in-one utility It offers numerous powerful and easy-to-use system tools and utilities to fix, speed up, maintain and protect your PC. In other words its a registry cleaner and it also has other programs that will speed up ur pc.

5. Make sure you have a working antivirus, antispyware, antimalware, and firewall.

Good freeware programs
Avast
Spybot
malwarebytes
Comodo firewall  (Just the the firewall not the antivirus only use one Antivirus)

6. here are some video's that might help you
