I troubleshoot any install which takes a minute to startup.
Average with everything unchecked in msconfig>Startup except AV and gadgets, using MSE and monitoring startup time increases closely through all update and program installs, is 30 seconds.
This program will give you a map of what starts up when during bootup: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/1402...resume-issues/Last edited by gregrocker; 20 Jan 2011 at 14:03.

Correct - a stock Win7 install on a Dell Latitude E4150 I just worked on booted from cold boot to usable (that's kernel, winlogon, explorer, and post boot items) in *exactly* 30 seconds. It had MSE and drivers, but nothing else. If an install takes longer than 90 seconds to boot on old hardware or 60 seconds on anything newer than 3 years old, it's time to see what's causing it if you want to speed up your boot time.

Unless you are trouble shooting something that is causing a specific problem with your boot time, I wouldn't get too hung up on how long it takes... A 20 second boot time makes for great bragging rights, but other than that, it doesn't really mean a whole lot.

bagavan, as long as everything still works how you want it to, then you've made a great improvement in your startup speed.
all those programs you've disabled were also hogging up your memory, and using processor cycles, so your whole system has probably got a bit quicker, not just your boot. :)
