    It might be helpful if you told us more specifically how long it takes to boot from a cold start, or how long to shutdown.

    Time in seconds would be good, but you can go metric if you must....
    I thought seconds were metric.

    Might be as simple as what you have loading at start up. Every thing you install , wants to acess the net for updates , run in the background. A good example is audio or video setting programs, running in the system tray. Keep your start list short.Try a program like regseeker or spybot, they have tools to disable or delete entries .



    There are many more like system mechanic , but the two I mention are freeware .

    It is about time these metric seconds were decimalised.
    .
    Political correctness is based on the principle that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
