only reason why i think i ll use win7 is its compatibility with XP software.. one or 2 minute difference in starting up will be the last reason for my choice ..
As I said before my problem is not boot up time it is shutdown/reboot time

As I said before my problem is not boot up time it is shutdown/reboot time it takes 147.493 seconds I find that very slow
Boot up time is 78.898 seconds.
I would like to know why the slow shut down/restart time?
Also At start up I get this
Host Process for Windows Services (svchost.exe) took 4075 ms longer to start up than usual. [Total: 6349 ms - Usual: 2274 ms]
I think having few (about 8) startup items helps. These items are things I can't live without, like Avast!.You got some quick booting systems there Frank...
Ok..bit of fun time.. Using this app found here: BootRacer - Test your Windows boot speed
I just wondered what the average boot time is for those using either 32bit or 64bit? So please state which one your using when posting your result.
My result is in the screenie below..
Windows 7 Home Premium 64Bit
Specs are in my sig..
27 seconds... but this isn't really accurate because looking at a clock when you press your power button and then checking it again when the hourglass disapperars is actually over 60 seconds.Cool!... More results mean a better data base...
I'm using build 7100 (the official Release Candidate). Will be purchasing the Full OEM version of Home premium 32 bit in the near future.Here is mine, did you use the beta? 7 HP 32 bit
