I reduced my boot-up time very much using Soluto, highly recommended :)

So what's your boot up time?

(Oct 27 '10 at 00:15) FilipinoPower

According to Soluto 2 mins average (before using soluto it was like 5 mins). My PC is rather old so it's good for me considering I've never had to reinstall the OS.

What are the specs on your computer?

(Oct 27 '10 at 00:31) FilipinoPower

Core 2 Duo e4300 (1.8Ghz) + 4GB RAM + nvidia 7600gs + Win Vista 32 bit. It's probably because of Vista but I haven't had the chance to upgrade to 7.

0	I don't know what my boot time is since I'm usually doing something else as its booting. I don't really care how long it takes, I mean does it even matter? As long as I can do what I need to go on my PC then I'm happy. answered Nov 11 '10 at 18:12 DazOwen 5.9k●77●104●159
