90 sec when powered off
(with dual boot OS on a 70% full perpendicular HDD)

instant from sleep

From powering on to being in Windows with a usable desktop it's 55 seconds here. Quite a chunk of that time is the BIOS hanging around and detecting all my HDs though. I'm sure if I had less drives or just measured from the moment Windows starts to load it'd be a lot less.

around 20 seconds from power on to surfing the net.

You need ASRock instant boot.

(search youtube for Windows "Vista to start in four seconds ASRock Instant Boot")

There's no way that ASRock mobo boots up a non-SSD windows system in a few seconds from power off. No way.

Never turn the damn thing off, so 0 secs

mines crazy quick compared to my old laptop, it takes about 10-15 to fully shutdown and about 20-30 to start up and maybe 10-15 for me to be on my desktop after logging

I would say about 25-30seconds. It used to be really quick but got a lot slower. A reformat might be in order.. when I can be bothered.

38 secs for me ( wonder how i could speed that up)

Marvin · 25 Apr 2010 at 07:34

Mine was around 27s with my password having to be entered, but I removed it to see what difference it would make (and how slow I am at typing...):

I am pleased - especially considering that the SSD is 3/4 full, and the install is a couple of months old.

Running Windows 7 64 bit, a Kingston 128GB SSD, 4GB RAM, a 955 BE (both at stock clocks).

Ran it. but nothing came up.

Lunatic Dreyfus · 25 Apr 2010 at 14:52

Win 7 64bit
80gb Intel x25m SSD
AMD Phenom II X3 720 BE
8gb DDR 2

All I need to do now is figure out why windows defender keeps rearing its ugly face at boot up since I reinstalled a few days ago.
