ReBoot Time

[anders the gamer]

Mine is this - running on my IBM laptop with 1.7 Ghz and 1gb Ram.

Not that bad actually

This is on a dual boot system, had to select the OS.
im gonna have to use the 2 second shutdown, and do a little tweaking to get it a little lower.

 

[TheTeZ]

Ok. I think I,ve got it. These times are being logged on a raw install - correct?
On a reinstall of 7, and then a reboot with Reboot vbs, I got 68 seconds. Still not competion for my Vista installation, but it has a year to go yet before final release. With Ms word 2007 installed, it drops back to 110 seconds and then, with my anti virus , to 165 seconds. So it has a long long road ahead, before it can compete with a customised Vista.

i had 61 seconds with no tweaking on a dualboot system. this isnt a fresh install. ive got all my programs installed. i shoulda ran this thing at fresh install!

I need to get the 2 second shut down that people are talking about.

Intel Core 2Duo Dul Core 2.20ghz
4 gigs ram
500gb western digital SATA drive.

err... i dunno thats all ya need i guess....

If I'm not totally wrong you're talking about that little tweak: How to Speed Up the Shut Down Time in Windows 7

But it won't shut down your system within 2 seconds, it only decreases the time windows waits before it kills an app. In the tutorial it's set to 2000 milliseconds, therefore it's been referred to as "2 second shutdown"

 

[TheTeZ]

right. thats what i was talking about. I meant i need to use that thing to get mine to reboot in under a min.

 

[Moron]

I did that thingy and got 52 secs

 

[Lebon14]

One core (default settings) :

Two-core boot :

Note that I have an anti-virus activated at boot and also nothing has been tweaked than the singe/dual core booting option in MSCONFIG.

EDIT

Just did that registry tweak quoted in killercat's post

AWESOME.

They are, in any case, meaningless, unless comapred with another OS on the same, or identical computer.
On my average laptop, unfortunately, I am not so excited. Vista overtuned,7tuned as best is known. Full Programs and hardwARE. Lan and Internet loading. Avast doing its final thing.
Vista boot up in1.20 mins: 7 in 2.20
Both shutdown in about 10 seconds.
Both run programs at near enough, the same speed.
7 outclasses Vista in compatibility. Speed on the Internet about the same.

Is there a way to reduce the boot up time?
I have disabled all startup items and changed the number of processors at boot. my boot up time is 70 secs and i feel thats too high. How can i reduce it?

 

[jtoolman]

70 seconds is actually not bad. I am getting about 60 to the logon screen and another 10-25 secs to a fully usable desktop.

 

[Dinesh]

I disabled TMM as I have laptop n now my bootup time is 65 secs n after disabling indexing n VSS service, i'm now at 61 which is quite impressive. I'm not connected to Internet on my laptop hence could not post the screenshot. But I will soon!

Reboot time

This is mine:

 

[weedmonk]

75Secs with Login and a Bootloader.

 

[Dinesh]

Reducing waittokill timeout value in registry from 12000 to 120 reduced my reboot time to 60 secs. That's amazing!

 

[kintomaniac]

i win

 

[angryman]

pretty good.

 

[ExNavy11]

Mine is 144 seconds. I definitely have some sort of issue as my system is new, with good hard ware, and only 2 items in start up.
