I wish I knew how to get sub 30 second reboots. Both my Sandy and Ivy Bridge take 45-50 seconds no matter what I disable.
I dunno what to say Gary, did you disable a lot of the post screens etc from the bios? Like the fullscreen logo one? That saves a bit of time.
This is the slowest of my last 3 boards, the Asrock was the fastest, I had 14 seconds on that and 17 the second time I installed on it, my Sabertooth was around 20 seconds. I can't remember how quick my Sandy P8 P67 EVO was but I am pretty sure that was quick too.
Yup, I disabled the POST screen and all of the optional boot from LAN, etc. options too. What's odd the Sandy has a HDD with my Users folder and AppData on it, while the Ivy is a SSD only for testing with very few programs installed.
I have Sleep and Hibernation disabled on both. When I first set up the Ivy (i7-3770K) it would get 23-26 seconds.
I am just wandering if you do something different to everyone else every time you set up a new rig/install windows. Like a little thing you think is best? I dunno mate, I really don't. You have decent SSD's, there is no reason your rigs should take 45-50 seconds, Maybe because you have them on the bench for 2 years to make sure they work before putting them into a case they get angry at you lol.
Im in the same boat Gary. I used to get 20 seconds. I just did a fresh install, now its 45 seconds
The best time I have had with this board is 30 seconds. But, it seems to all be in the bios. If you time it from the 'starting Windows' screen to the desktop it's 8 seconds.
OK, I lied. I just did it again. It used to be 8 seconds, it's 11 seconds now. But, I'll take that.
