I'm rather disappointed with my results....ah well, I don't really notice the slow speed, and I've done everything I can to speed it up.
System specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-bit
Intel Core2Duo @ 1.3GHz
4GB DDR2 RAM
250GB HDD (75GB OS partition, 157GB Data partition)
Intel GMA4500MHD integrated graphics ()
Heres Mine though for some reason after the animation as windows boots it stays there wobbling for 20 seconds and I cant figure how to stop that
Any Idea's
I am right on the heels of davehc! His was 69 secs(first page) and mine is One second behind him--->70 seconds!
I am now at 78 seconds with Windows 7 SP 1, compared to 70 seconds without SP 1. This is with a very fast processor and a fast spinning drive.
Up 8 seconds, I assume for a good reason. Not sure what it is.
For some of you with long shutdown times you might want to look into turning off the option of wiping paging file upon shutdown.
After much trial & tribulation and no improvement in my reboot times (was taking at least 75-95 secs, I posted a few times in this thread) I decided to do a fresh "factory" re-install using the built in OEM recovery option. After de-CRAPifying, updating, & re-installing my personal stuff from various media, this also primed my computer for installing SP1 (which I did, took me only 1 hour) Long story made short here's my most recent reboot (55 secs, a DRASTIC improvement)
Appartently when I bought the laptop, I BORKED something in the setup and it was making me CRAZY that I could not figure what it was that was "broken".
Sometimes even a blind squirrel finds a nut!
