Your best Boot time ever recorded!

Mine as of right now is about... 14sec. I need to time it again. Seems about 14sec. though. My Sig. says it all :)

14 Seconds? Mine's about 41 (and that's pretty good!) Are you using a 10kRPM Drive/ iRAM drive?? What optimizations did you do your boot?

Ok, I just timed. Unpluged everything and even switched off the power supply. I held down the power button for 10sec. and the Monitor as well. Reswitched the power supply and pluged the power receiver back in. I timed how long it took to actually boot up to the welcome screen. Time was 38sec.

When I timed just on the Windows Xp boot screen about 19sec. Real time read 18.51 Not Bad!

Yeeeeeeeeah... 14 seconds would be insane.

Yeah, It would... :mellow:

P4, 1 gig ddr, 3 ghz, 7200 rpm drive.

Constant 30 secs here with or without my AV and FW auto starting.

Anyone here running a 10,000rpm drive and did you notice any improvement in overall performance?

OMG thats fast!

my computers crap and it still boots around 15-25 secs!

Yeah but it's also up to the amount of RAM you have installed, I think. More RAM installed requires a little longer boot time, someone correct me if I'm wrong on this.

Here is a quite a long thread of everything possible to do with improving boot times

lol, I read it but I'm just going to leave my Boot time alone :)

wow, long thread and lots of info. i might be better off just waiting the extra 30 seconds or so and not screwing myself over-again. :)

the only things ive done is disable everything that i can start up with a shortcut and do something in the registry, changed a value to a lower number or somethin.
