I have to log into my computers each time, select user then password. I could probably get a better time if I set it to just get me in without a password

Could not resist trying it with a user and no password, 12.511 now........

Wow nice score for a 'HDD'.
-
Out of curiosity has anyone tried the same SSD to a desktop? How faster was the boot?
-
Aristotelhs2060 Notebook Virtuoso
something to be fixed again. both of my OCZ vertex are those
OCZ Vertex Series SATA II 2.5" SSD OCZ Technology
and they are 120gb not 100.
thanks -
Aristotelh, it's selfservice, copy paste the list and do the appropriate changes
-
-
Removed all accounts except my own and deleted the password so it's not needed at start up. Still, nothing.
Click on bootimer.exe (on my desktop), get the "Windows has to reboot to measure boot time. Do you want to restart your computer now?", click yes, it restarts, and nothing? -

I don't know what the tweaks to make are, so until i do i won't be able to get it lower, none the less i thought it was impressive with no tweaking. Any ideas? -
That's a really good time IMO, if you want to try to set a new record, apply the following:
you need to automatically login to windows (judging from your current time you already do that)
Apply all the tweaks from the following thread except from moving the user's directory
http://forum.notebookreview.com/6127614-post4.html
Disable all the services and all the starup items (run... msconfig)
Disable readyboost
Open Computer Management -> performance -> Data Collector Sets -> Startup Event Trace Sessions
Double click on Readyboot and under the trace session tab uncheck to disable like the screenshot below
http://img132.imageshack.us/i/readybootdisable.jpg/
After that I would do a reboot and then go to C:\Windows\Prefetch and delete all its contents
Disable UAC
Imageshack - actioncenter3.png
Change the visual effects
Imageshack - visualteffects.png
Change the personalization settings
Imageshack - personalization.png
Disable features like indexing service and windows search
Imageshack - windowsfeatures.png
After all those tweaks you are targeting for the 1st position on the list -

Seems like the only way I'm getting my details in is if I do it myself, lol. -
I'm just shy of the minute mark, with my current specs in my sig. Is this a reasonable time considering my processor and HDD? I've disabled a lot of startup apps to keep it as low as possible. For some reason bootimer never works for me, after it prompts me to restart my computer, it doesn't work. Am I missing something?
-
I just realised that the 10.998 I posted was done on battery power with power saver profile. So I tried it on mains power and balanced profile and cracked into single figures with a 9.609, woo!
Again, the only tweak is no gui. Maybe I'll have a fiddle and see how low I can get it...

that the boot times we're interested in are those that get us to a state
in which Windows is useable. -

Alright, disabling UAC did it. I also removed all bootup items from msconfig, deleted the prefetch file, and other tweaks per stamatisx post above ...

Phil, your time is excellent considering your CPU. Out of curiosity, did you apply all the tweaks from this post?
-
Most of them... but I just disabled all services in msconfig.
-
Trust me do all of them and disable the notifications as well, it's something I forgot to add to that post. I am sure you can lower your time by half a second. Plus sgilmore62 I believe had this time with a RAID on a desktop which automatically qualifies you for the third place...
-
Yes let's disqualify sgilmore. Dekstops are prohibited
How do I disable the notifications? -
Here you are Phil, Imageshack - actioncenter1.png
All those tweaks are located into one post here as well -
OK this is what I did. Correct me if I'm wrong please.
action center settings > all disabled.
uac > totally disabled.
gui > best performance
desktop background > solid color
computer management > disable readyboot
msconfig:
-disable all services and all startup items
-disable bootup logo
Since all services are disabled there's no need for manually disabling indexing.
Since UAC is totally disabled there's no need (no option) to disable notifications. -
As long as you don't see any notifications popping up you are fine.
Also make sure you selected the correct number of cores when you boot and to make the changes permanent.
Oh another thing I forgot to mention, try to disable devices you don't need from BIOS as well as from the device manager. Make a couple of reboots before you start the boot timer. Also try keep the amount of usage/boot/reboot to minimum because the performance of the SSD will degrade and you won't see any better times -
Hmm maybe I'll settle for this now. Thanks for your expert help.

Congrats Phil for this time, it's only one second more compared to an Intel X25-E with a T9600 @ 3.41 GHz. I would be more than satisfied with that... good job man

A hybrid HDD on the top 10, that's a pleasant surprise
-
With a bit of fiddling and tweaking.. 8.736.
I think that's the most I can get out of it, short of doing a clean install of Windows. I throw in the towel.. beat a 920XM though, so I'm happy!

I Had a XT as primary in the P7805 and it was no where near the performace on boot of the Asus. Even with the SSD the Gateway can barely make 16 seconds. With the XT as primary I could only best 21 seconds.
I attribute this primarily to the 9800m GTS. Once running you can definately tell between the SSD and XT. The difference though was more before though from 320GB Black to XT.
The 320GB Black and 8GB ReadyBoost just could not match the XT. Now this is the older 320 Black and I think they are getting new platters. I can tell you the XT in the U81-a is faster than the 7K500 and 8GB Ready Boost it replaced.
I base this not just on boot times but every day use. For a consumer HDD the XT's are just awesome. The Callisto is just that much more awesomer........... -
Mine is 14.500 fresh install win7 with no tweaks. AMD Turion X72 Dual Core 2.1
I could easily fool you with the below result in fact it would just be fooling myself.
PS:I just didn't wanna waste my time making the window same as windows
boottime utility. -
there is no trophy or competition so no need to fake any window or results... simply try for your best boot time and that's it...
-
-
just gonna add my specs..with Celeron cpu and G1 SSD pride!

SU4100 and SU9400 are very close in performance. 1.3GHz vs. 1.4GHz. -
55 seconds for me when I ran it, no tweaks, power button to firefox.
Vista was 45 seconds(though I only ever ran an nlited SP1/2 copy).

Let me reassure you though. I have had this system since last January and have always done very well, be it with the Intel or 2 OWC drives. It is simply knowing how to work your system and nothing more.
Can I ask... Have u done the test on a fresh installation with services and startups off?
Here is my second post in this thread... It is with the same system and the Intel.

I think the boot utility starts counting after BIOS post. Correct?

Post your Windows 7 Boot Time (tweaks allowed)
