Boot times for me have always been weird. When I first installed XP it booted up fast for about a week, then pretty slow (1-2 minutes on the XP load screen), and now fast again. It doesnt bother me much tho, I usually get up, kick (yes kick) the power button, and get dressed while it boots. I am nerd, hear me roar.


Boot times are easy to keep low. Just don't have as much crap loaded. Or bypass it by leaving the computer on.

OR, you can probably get away with hibernating the computer. So it fully shuts off and comes back to state quickly (I've heard there's been some issues with this though) [addsig]

My computer takes roughly 10-15 seconds from button push to password login, after that it's a 5 second process at most. [addsig]

Odds are I've followed it unintentionally. (I'm taking school to be a computer and network technician, and I'm often tweaking my settings to my own use.) Occasionally guides like this will give me one or two new things, which I just add to my habits. [addsig]
