19seconds winows 7 :)
I have a 19second screenie, do you?
edit...
infact no I don't....that was a complete lie,lol
I was sure I got 19secs....nevermind.....the night is yet young :)
71 seconds... Forgot to do screen shot.
i gotta try this :rofl:
EDIT: 40.297 on my p4 1.6 1gb wxp lappy
14.484 on my E8200 2gb wxp rig
14sec boot time is pretty impressive.
Attached is mine.
I boot 60.484 :down: very slow motion
Nice tool, 34 seconds on Vista x64.
I got another VBS script that measures the time and it's 64 seconds.
35 seconds. I saw the first couple @ 21 and 19, and thought "Aw, I thought I always had a good boot-up time! :(" Then I scrolled down and saw 91, 71, 60 etc. Makes me feel good being faster than those fatties. Christmas is good! :D
LOL @ Bootup05 with 91 seconds. How ironic is that a guy named Bootup05 has the slowest time? :p:
Not working :confused: I wonder if the fact that it's vLited has anything to do with it....I know it take about 20 seconds to boot-up and be responsive. The exe asks me to reboot then it hangs with the cmd window and nothing happens, i tried it a few times already thinking it was Winpatrol stopping it or something. Let me try running it as an administrator....
Nope still nothing...
37 seconds Vista 64...:shrug:
74.609 seconds. Dell Inspiron 1501!
XP 32 SP3.

I going to tweak the system now and see if I can get below 20sec.
fun little tool
shop machine 1360 sec.:rofl:
22mins??? ^^
what does it boot from.....an L.P? :ROTF:
199.109
Yeah, its really bad, I know. Can't figure out whats wrong though. I think its just time for a new computer.
hmm interesting and useful but non the less flawed.
Bootup time from test = 48sec (Admittedly slow system in dire need of re-install)
However real bootup (Excluding Bios) as measured by stopwatch = 77secs
I counted about 10sec in my head to the point it picked up the windows install and pressed the Go button on the stop watch.
So reality more like 87-90 seconds.
very true.
i remember using a stopwatch to find out what the boot time of my win95 pc was. back in those days i got to app 30 seconds between pushing the power button and the moment when the harddisk stopped loading.
i believe it's impossible to have an everyday system boot up that fast today. a complete xp/vista install with anti-virus and everything booting up in less than two minutes? i gotta see it to believe it! (then again, maybe SLC SSDs can make that happen)
I use the vbs script provided on VistaX64 to measure the boot time. It's actually the reboot time because shutdown is included but I get around 70 seconds and my best was 64 when I tweaked it. But I don't use an A/V that could be why :D
If you have a sort of PC sense you know which files will be safe and which ones aren't. If I'm going to run an unsafe file I'll run it on the VM first or I'll try an online scan of the file.
The only thing that loads up on my system is the sound manager.
When I've got my PC running I'll try with the script, the program and a stopwatch.
Windows 7 with intel SSD. (nod32 AV, Xreminder, and realtemp startup with windows). Boot time according to program 13.96 seconds. With stopwatch, from computer off until windows 7 loaded (including AV, RT, xrem) and cpu idle ... 37 seconds.
I havent reformatted in FOREVER, so im not even gonna run the program, itd be pointless lol. I'd say something like 1 min 30 seconds LOL
Did a fresh install of X64 xp tonight, still pretty slow though.

No.
When a system is powered up a then the BIOS initiates a POST (Power On Self Test). This ensures all devices on the motherboard (aswell as plugged into it) are in proper order (cpu,ram,soundcard,graphics card,any and/or all HDD's, optical drives etc) then after this action the bios hands over to the OS which then BOOTS.
So no, you don't include the BIOS posting as part of the BOOT process :p:
If I asked how quickly your car could do 0-60mph would you include the time it takes to start the engine?
interesting tool, will try it with gigabyte i-ram soon :D
i uploaded the reboot vidoe on youtoube - check this out: :cool:

ACARD 9010 on a Dell PERC 6/i, running XSOS v1 w/ apps. Oh, and this isn't even on my Intel Q6600 - this is on a stock s939 setup. I hope this makes you look forward to the ACARD review I'll be posting before too long.
I suspect I'll be beaten before the thread dies, but for now....
I R TEH WINNER:
Bogged down with a lot of services

No way, 13 seconds. Takes me 46, how the hell do you get it down that much?
I sense new HDDs coming for me, this is pitiful.
Pretty fast ;)

Its not working for me, i restart and nothing pops up/ i get no boot time data after running the prog. Maybe because i have Vista on C: and Win7 on D: ...?

actual bootup @ 2 seconds
Does it take out the time needed to enter a password? On Server 2008 I got 34 seconds yesterday, and that's on a mirror of Fujitsu 15K drives.
When I time manually, I could startup as from the second Windows starts loading (POSTing doesn't count) to the time it's ready for ctrl+alt+del.
now you want to turn it into pc bootup time :rofl: :ROTF: :clap:
30-45 sec warm up ? lol this is not the adaptec asr5805.. 3x areca raid cards at once bootup faster than half that :)
total pc+windows bootup time is faster than most others windows bootup time in the thread ;)
not impressive/fastest i can bootup windows.. let me get it down to 3 seconds maybe then
I said "impressive" but you have to load the raid which can take a long time.
and how long is bios to load desktop inquiring minds would like to know.
what raid card are you using??
Mine takes 1.5 minutes If I just flip the switch (asks if I want to boot vista or previous windows version 30s)
guys this is only a windows bootup timer not a pc bootup timer

This utility is Windows Boot timer. Simply double click on the executable & upon restart, it will display the time taken by your computer to load windows. It does not take into effect the time taken to go through BIOS or BIOS bootup password. It takes the time from the instant BIOS starts loading Windows.
i'm on my (Clevo) lappy atm (Vista 64)

@GTSRboy - I had to create a desktop shortcut to the app before restarting
Thanks TedShred, that worked
