I do not think it will be a memory issue if you have 2GB and no big apps
running.

Have you got all the ThinkVantage stuff updated?

I have a feeling it might be something like the Trackpad software or
something like that. If you want to investigate this, you can temporarily
disable all the ThinkVantage stuff in both accounts, using AutoRuns. See if
that makes a difference, and then you will have narrowed it down.

It's best to ask other ThinkPad users that use Vista (I use XP on mine).
