ReBoot Time

[ddix1026]

here's mine.. i dont have anything unchecked at startup.. not bad for now.. i will uncheck about 4 or 5 things..

With the prior boot disk (WD Black Caviar) time was 65 seconds. SSD makes it a little quicker.

 

[ddix1026]

removed a few things from startup (Adobe stuff, etc).. a bit better.. obviously not going to get that much better than a platter drive or some liquid cooling...

Here is a similar test, just boot up to desktop time, no shut down time included.

Nice find Dave76, this tool could be added to the first post of this thread and also Brink's Tutorial Restart Time - How to See What Your Windows 7 Restart Time is

Link to Dave76's find - BootRacer - Test your windows boot speed

So without further ado



Best 5 out of ?, most using auto login and also temporarily disabling AV and Internet during 1 test had no affect on time.

@essenbe, Nice scores.
Matching startups with those two SSDs,

I have a fresh install and haven't even looked at the startup load yet.

Maybe I'll take a look later

@IAP, you'll have to cut that in half to catch essenbe

I did beat him to Login

SSD vs HDD

SSD: (Vertex2 - they look to be pretty uniform across systems in this test)



HDD: (Seagate 7200.12)

Dave, your machine POSTs faster than mine.

Mine fluctuates a little. It ranges from 29-31 usually. It may be what is going on in the background. Guess I just hit it right this time.

Restart-Time and Bootracer together.

Have a look at this:

MaaS360® Boot Analyzer Tool

How long does it take your computers to boot when users start them? Is your IT group getting calls? The problem could be the new software or corporate image, but how can you be sure?

The MaaS360 Boot Analyzer can maintain a history of up to 100 previous boot times, match boot time delays with changes to the computer, perform automated tests for benchmarking, and set thresholds and notify you if the times suddenly increase.

That's the BIOS, have you diabled things you don't need?

Like IDE, if you aren't using an IDE drive or CD.

 

[essenbe]

Dave, nothing disabled. I do have an IDE CD/DVD. That's normal, it usually runs from 29-31.

New here very cool program.

I just replaced my original Sandy Bridge motherboard with the B3 revision of the same motherboard. My boot times improved by 20 seconds from 67 to 47. This is with a spinning drive (WD Caviar Black 640, 3 years old).

The difference is because the old board had a 20 second countdown of "loading operating system" on a black screen. The replacement board bypasses the countdown. I have no idea why. In both cases, I used AHCI controllers.
