How long does your comp take to start up?

[Johnson]

If there weren't a password to enter, my iBook would be up, loaded and ready in about 25 seconds.

 

[Reg Web]

Between 30 and 60 seconds.

 

[Blitz-Host]

around 15-20 secs

 

[serverorigin]

10 secs or so

iBook is around 20 seconds with login

 

[utcrazy]

Around 2 seconds, I'm running the new Core 2 Duo. Haha, just kidding, I wish though, 15-20 seconds.

 

[TaintedPearls]

Between 15 and 25 secs

Damn thats long 3-5 mins, you think if i changed my PATA to SATAII it would increase performance? and even windows start up?

 

[Joe Right]

Well, Mine takes about 15-20 seconds to completely boot OS and all

 

[Matt8]

I can't remember the last time this desktop was off to be honest with you...and I rarely reboot, so I am not too sure. My laptop though is about 20 seconds, pretty quick.

Most likely

 

[Keagle]

Around 15 secs. I have very few things running in the background, just the basics, Antivirus, and then the Wireless Network Icons. Thats it

I'm soon getting a new computer, it's going to be sweet.

 

[Marky]

Yea baby got new SATA2 Drives, cant really see the difference for Start up

 

[themoose]

1-3 minutes. That's plenty fast for me.

The first computer we got was 20mins, with nothing on it.

 

[E2Umedia]

With a fresh winxp install about 5 sec. But now about 10 sec.

Wow 10 seconds to start your computer up? Takes about a minute for me, on my laptop.
