coknuck Posted January 19, 2009 CID Share Posted January 19, 2009 I found this cool script that reboots your system and times it. Seeing as how TMN doesn't let me use the .vbs extension I used .txt. Save to desk top then open cut the text out. Now open a new notepad and paste. Do a "save as" and name it REBOOT_TIME.VBS Edit: This is Windows 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roco Posted January 22, 2009 CID Share Posted January 22, 2009 Hi Coknuc, sorry I couldn't get your script to work on Xp. (script error ) I use Microsoft's Boot vis , it gives great detail and a optimise option , but I guess its how you judge a restart to have completed , I get to a working Desktop in around 20 seconds ,shown by the red line with a cube on top , and certainly ready to go in under 30 seconds , my secrete is in the task manager Pic , 29 running processes , including software firewall ,AVG , desk top calender , wallpaper changer and net meter my puter is a lowly 2.6Ghz dual core Athlon with 2Gb of mem.

coknuck Posted January 22, 2009 Author CID Share Posted January 22, 2009 I'll have to give the M$ one a shot. I wonder if it will work on Windows 7? I'll let you know in a little bit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roco Posted January 22, 2009 CID Share Posted January 22, 2009 I'll have to give the M$ one a shot. I wonder if it will work on Windows 7? I'll let you know in a little bit! thanks , and I will try and spell your name right next time I am skipping Vista , but I might go for win 7 , and if forced may even pay for it , and that would be a first for me BTW, my Xp pro is ligit , it was a gift from adoring female fans , and not one under 65 years , bless them , P.s , looks like is only for Xp ? , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BootVis although I disagree about it not helping home users , it works for me ,you can do a trace B4 and after , it lops off about 5 seconds for me , but the + 5secs returns after a time , I use it about once a month or so , when I do a big clean up session on my puter , LOL my "c" drive has only 6.25|Gb used , lean and clean is my motto edit to correct link ?
