While I agree with Headucatiion that Win7 is much better than Vista, Without knowing
your PC specs, I can’t really make any OS recommendations.
Answer #3
Generally Windows 7 is better than Vista given relatively modern hardware. If you’re sticking to Vista, SP2 is a good idea.
Answer #4
It’s not a normal SP2 , it is Check build(debug mode) , ?

Agreed. That would be the best choice given the hardware specs.

XP was never mentioned in this topic, So I have no idea why you even brought it up
But just for the record, M$ is gonna continue releasing XP updates (for both 32 & 64 bit) til April 8th,2014: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/endofsupport.aspx
