When I create a new user account on Vista, is there some way to just copy
over all the settings from an existing account? The desktop, graphics
configurations and all that crap? I spent hours flushing all the Vista
stuff out of the original account to make it look like XP and speed up the
machine, customizing various things, icons, etc.

It would be nice to only have to do this once instead of figuring it out
again for every single account. And it would be nice when making some
change to one account to not have to redo it for every existing account. I
suspect this is built in somewhere, but I haven't been able to stumble into
it.

The "roaming profile" sounds like it may be what I want, but it's grayed out
in the "Change Profile Type" panel so I can't select it.

Thanks.

Bill
