The other benefit missing here is that PCs arent actually usable when they boot into the desktop screen as a tonne of other things may have to load along with superfetch kicking in. SSDs have a major benefit there.

New boot time with OCZ Summit 60GB in replace of Samsung one below.

Intel E8400 at stock
Samsung 64GB SSD
4GB DDR2
Windows 7 RC1 x64
NOD32 v4

As mentioned above, those with RAID will have a delay on POST.

38secs, Windows XP from clicking re-start back to a usable desktop lol.
Progress 'eh

Mind you, I only installed it a couple of hours ago so it's got nothing on it.

Have you tried re-testing a few times? there's quite a bit of variation I found between each restart and the time given. That difference might not be as much after a few more goes.

114 seconds according to this tool on a samsung spinpoint F1 (Q6600 @ 3.2, 8GB DDR2 800MHz, Win7 x64) - the POST screen is quite slow though and not just POST but prepost - my mobo is a UD3P and the pre-POST GFX init screen takes almost 10secs alone.

Also I assume people are doing this on a clean user account and not one that has stuff loading (msn, steam, AV) etc...

76 Seconds on Lenovo Notebook. Dual core cpu 1.66, 4gb ram 500gb SATA disk.

58 seconds, single core celeron, 4gb ram, hitachi 500gb sata drive

result is irrelevant anyway. i use sleep mode.

Closed off a few services and got it down to 76secs, lol not a vast improvment but nevermind.

My new Build in sig got 33 seconds

Does anyone know how to remove this app? It does it every time a reboot now.

Doesn't seem to be in the "Startup" folder

daz87uk · 2 Nov 2009 at 19:48

Thats odd, mine was only a batch file and only operates once.

I wonder if having disks in the optical drives slows it up?
