Hardware profile

Good morning all from a relative newbie to this board.
Just got a new PC, running Vista Home Premium
Intel core duo2 processor
2046mgb RAM
I am busy working through the excellent advise on setting up for VS (10+).
sjj1805 you are a great help along with other tut. material. I have got very interested in setting up a seperate hardware profile to log into when I want to use VS. Is there a chance of some advice on how to set up such a profile in Vista. Windows "HELP" on the matter is somewhat "confusing" They seem to be calling it a user profile and it then merges into so-called user account. The bottom line is I cannot find a place to set up a harware profilw within Control Panel, as very well described in the tutorial available, and clearly aimed at XP.
Most of this will be down to my own ineptitude, so some help would be appreciated. I went through the exercise at the top of the tut. and saw how much valuable RAM was being suded by backgront cpu activity, by looking tt the monitor read-out, so it would make a lot of sence to log into a seperate profile.
Many thanks in advance
Tony Scott

I do not have Vista, perhaps one of our forum members has tried this procedure with Vista and may wish to comment.

CAPTURE>EDIT>SHARE>CREATE FILE>BURN DISK......PLay's fine on the pc, but not on the dvd player. I have completed a project before, but the work was done on a pc running XP Home
