    Hmm that kinda sucks... (using vista as the default)
    Kinda explains the quick XP boot time of 25 seconds and Vista is 40 secs.

    That and the fact that XP generally boots faster than Vista anyways. But 40secs (if you are accurate) is a good boot time for Vista!

    40s is not good, its stellar. Vista boot times generally suck.
