Vista Wireless Gaming Lag Spikes <Unresolvable!>

I got a good one for you.. something nobody has been able to solve and no forum has the answer and sooo many people have this problem.

Windows Vista (x32 ultimate) has a bug. Regardless of your wireless adapter or any 3rd party software you install WLAN autoconfig (WLANsvc) searches for better connection every 60secs causing lag spikes you would only notice gaming but definately making them too annoying to play (wow,wc3) so heres what i have tried so far
vista anti lag, vista anti lag with xp drivers, wlan optimizer, various software programs for my three different wireless adapters from g cards to n card., dos commands in netshWLAN and every kinda possible tweak to the cards/router you can imagine. bottom line is the problem lays in WLANsvc. Now microsoft is no help, in windows xp you could disable it and use your own software with the card (WirelessZero i believe Xp's was called) but they have made it so if you disable WLANsvc you cannot use any other program.
Now the closest I have come to a solution from someone that I have not tried is they disabled WLANsvc and manually entered the SSID under configuration on there adapter. and success aparantly. thus connecting without the horrible WLANsvc. I have rummaged through countless drivers of different makes and seen no such option to enter SSID right onto the device.
So i think hes fullocrap. There has to be another way to stop WLANsvc from searching or someone to connect without WLANsvc.

(I wouldve just installed XP on a 2nd partion (disabledWzero to play warcraft) but believe it or not my computer will only run Vista.. XP cannot handle the hardware.

So you resolve my problem and I will go back and post on every forum who the man with the answer is and that donations are the least these thousands of people can do to thank you.

I look forward to your reply
junglist88@msn.com if u want to directly email me.
Thank you

I find that hard to believe. What is the exact make and model of the computer?

Re: Vista Wireless Gaming Lag Spikes <Unresolvable!>

Dell Dimension DXP061 Intel DuelCore 6600 @ 2.4
ram 3070
32 bit vista ultimate...

but you know what I went ahead and tried it anyways because it was Dell I asked about installing dual boot and they said XP wouldnt function properly because Vista was installed first (which i am not deleting)

but in respond to your email I did some checking around and it looks to me like lots of people have sucessfully installed it so I went ahead to shrink my harddrive (500g) (181g free) but it says theres nothing free for partioning.
I tried defraging, and disabling pagefiles and everything that a certain forum said to do but still nothing. It still says theres no space available. I only need about 2-3 gigs on the new partion... hmmmm

Re: Vista Wireless Gaming Lag Spikes <Unresolvable!>

The only problem installing XP after Vista is that XP writes a MBR (Master Boot Record) that Vista no longer uses. Hence Vista will no longer boot unless you repair its BCD (Boot Configuration Data) as seen here:

Some suggest third party software to simplify the process such as:

As to the partition: if you only have one you cannot do anything with it via Windows. You need partitioning software to create a new partition.

I use GParted.

There are also several commercial programs such as Partition Magic and Acronis
