How fast Is your Vista boot time?

BrooksyX · Apr 28, 2009

Meh, I am pretty sure if I did a fresh install of windows it would make mine a lot faster.

ShadowFold · Apr 28, 2009

Mine's extreme vLited. I took pretty much everything out.

Nah, it's a regular install and tweaked using Black Viper's guide as reference but nothing crazy. This install is actually a ghosted copy from my old HDD too.

alexp999 · Apr 28, 2009

Who needs SSD,

Oh Yeah!

Do be 4 seconds faster apparently you do!

alexp999 · Apr 28, 2009

A lot of the time depends on how fast your BIOS is at posting tho, if I were to RAID two AAKS, the time I make up in read speed would be wasted on the extra RAID POST.

I'm really proud of this drive tho.

Ewwww that hurt

Here first try

human_error · Apr 29, 2009

Hmm...that's about 114.5 seconds longer than i'd like

Guess i've got a while to wait before my pc is where i want it to be when it comes to boot times...

vladmire · Apr 29, 2009

i'll try this one later once my internet connection is better. grrrrrrr.

baggpipes · Apr 29, 2009

Well not the best heres 55 secs for Vista Basic 32 bit. No vlite just keep it defragged and check my msconfig occasionally.

DrPepper · Apr 29, 2009

This would make for a nice competition

My best is 118 seconds :twitch:

So I'm vliting a complete new install just for this.

MKmods · Apr 29, 2009

I did mine on XP (no vista comp) and got 56.

I miss my ASRock quicky (with Vista)

Thanks jM

cdawall · Apr 29, 2009

50 sec

thats without the SSD's on a lappy harddrive too

department76 · Apr 29, 2009

92 sec

didn't disable any startup programs (xfire, etc.), and about ~2 secs for password time.

hoss331 · Apr 29, 2009

Thats fast.

NeotonicDragon3 · Apr 29, 2009

I got 156 Seconds LOL

MadClown · Apr 29, 2009

Mine doesnt compare to your guys's, mine is prolly close to 3 minutes cause i gotta force it to boot cause im to lazy to update the bios, but if i didnt have to get a quad it'd be under a minute

OnBoard · Apr 29, 2009

So when does the script end? I mean mine loads all sorts of crap (sidebar, nhancer, kaspersky, desktop full of junk and others) takes ages, but I hardly ever boot

If the srcrip stops when desktop load then I could run it, but if it stops after everything that in startup has loaded I won't bother.

edit: "Once your computer has restarted completely (including startup programs [i.e. anti-virus]) a popup window will show up telling you how many seconds it took your computer to restart."

Oh well, I'll give it a go and be a proud owner of slowest boot time =)

edit2: here we go (script stopped before sidebar was fully ready and before logitech profile & nhancer even started to load

)

Think that's worst though, so got what I wanted

Might disable some stuff and try again.

edit3: with stuff disabled, got a bit better, might be defrag time.
