Disabling Windows Services. There are many useful results in there. You could save yourself the trouble and pain of waiting for a reply by searching on Google yourself. Services have not changed much from XP to Vista, but I'm not going into detail, because you can find details by searching as well. You should know better by now!

It depends on what software you have installed, because you may have software that uses services that it needs to run. You really aren't going to gain any performance from disabling Microsoft services. Useless user services drain performance, and at startup user startup items.

No, ReadyBoost relies on the flash properties of the memory card to speed up your PC by using it as a cache for pre-loaded files and such. Loading these onto an external USB hard drive would give similar or worse performance then loading them directly from the internal hard drive, and as such would be utterly pointless.
Also, as a side note, ReadyBoost only works on sticks with at least 512mb of memory, so older sticks with smaller capacities are no use.

ReadyBoost also causes problems with some applications. Its not fast enough to perform memory intensive operations, like that of some video games. You could experience no problems at all, but you will most likely experience system lock-ups, and other horrendous effects.
