Windows 7 Startup Screens - What are they loading
Hi, first, all's working good, no Windows 7 problems :)
I was curious about what Windows is loading during the spinning "Logo" screen after POST (the black background screen with the colored Windows logo).
Is this when Windows is accessing and loading the Boot Mgr in the "System Reserved" partition and also loading Windows drivers?
Also, what is Windows starting or loading when the "Welcome" screen appears?
Does "Iexplore.exe" begin once the user logs into their Windows account at the "Welcome" screen?
What is the general consensus as to the elapsed time during the Logo screen, from the time it appears to the time that the Welcome screen appears?
I'm using conventional ("spinner") HDD's on my 2 Windows PC's and the Logo screen elapsed time is about the same on my Desktop PC and my Laptop PC , about 26-28 seconds in duration.
