ReBoot Time

[bdawg34]

Restart-Time

My cpu restart-time is 88 seconds!

My previously posted restart time was 44 sec. Just ran it again
and got...43 sec



I recently got an El Cheapo Intel x25-V (thats V for 'Value' ) 40Gb to play with.
Win 7 installed from USB in just under 11 min (including at least 40 sec trying to connect
to the network, but I had the cable disconnected). Restart-time... 31 sec.



This inspite of a Disk controller error in Event Viewer which needs to get sorted out.

cant be bothered to do a screen, but it was 75 seconds, replaced zone alarm with MSE and set HDD as first boot device got it down to 69, take away the 5 seconds for my dual boot menu to select win 7 (i let it time out so as not to jar the results) i make that 64 seconds, im very pleased with that

You've edited it - the spaces before and after the number 13 aren't equal

not to mention the fact that it probably takes 10 seconds for the BIOS to run its checks....

Laptop Reboot Time

Hmm..

Is this kind of fast?


I just downloaded the utility and ran it.

Welcome meraki1990, Yes that's a pretty good time.

Here is my.......

 

[cclloyd9785]

mine is moderatly fast compared to the some i see, but i could shave at least 20 seconds off if i didnt mess with it so much to get a hackintosh on my machine. It now goes through at least 4 more boot proccess before it starts the OS, and i dont know how to remove them.



and here is a good looking edit that i made.



I did good? No? Yes? I win?

Well... After enabling AHCI my speed dropped from 68 to 65 seconds. I'm still happy with my dual core AMD. Hehe... I can't wait to get my second two RAM modules though, 2GB just insn't enough for me anymore. Lol.


Edit: Oh, and for the record; my PC shuts down in about 5 or 6 seconds, and then my BIOS takes about 5 seconds before it shows anything on the screen... Damn XFX BIOS apparently doesn't like having the CPU overclocked, but my AMD loves it, so I don't mind. AND.... I had to type in a password.

Yeah, it's always hard to quantify and compare some of these numbers. I have an SSD in my desktop, and when I press the power button it takes 9 seconds before the screen comes alive and then takes another 11 seconds to blow through the POST. Then a 2-3 second delay before it says starting windows. So, it's about 23 seconds from button press to Windows even starts loading. But I'm at the logon screen in about 13 seconds due to the SSD.

Now my work laptop, a Dell E6400 gets to booting Windows in a cool 7 seconds from a power button push. But if given a choice of what machine to use...my desktop absolutely obliterates my laptop in terms of performance.. So, using boot times and such simply don't tell the whole story...or even the best parts of the story.
