ReBoot Time

I had to write my password, if not that the time would be better :] No apps, i like speed, in autostart i have only most necessery things like av, firewall and drivers.

I don't know if this is tops, but it works for me.

Pretty happy with my result, I gotta say.

I had to too, i didnt know that effected the timing, i guess thats stupid to say but i didnt think about it......

This is the time I got on mine although the boot does seem to be taking longer than it should (BIOS checking things I don't want it to)..

Not a bad reboot speed anyway :)

Fastest non-SSD time to date?

I'd like to know what you have tweaked to get your reboot time down to sub 45 seconds. My BIOS can't go much faster by windows takes ages loading. Need to do a trace on what is taking the time. Most likely the graphics drivers.

1 - Enabling all cores on Boot.
2 - Disabling unnecessary services
3 - Setting HDD with OS 1st on Boot order
4 - Very few startup applications (just Avira AntiVir Personal, PC Tools Firewall Plus and Steam).

That's about it I guess...
