    My personal computer takes about 1 minute at the most. I'm running Vista 64Bit Ultimate on a QuadCore, 4GB Ram (DDR3 1666Mhz) computer. When you have a lot of work to do on the computer I need things moving quickly. My performance score on my personal computer is pretty good.

    Very slow about 5 minutes. That was until after removing alot useless junk that starts up with the computer and goes into the system tray. Now about 2 minutes to boot up. Some of that stuff was things I didn't even use like MSN messenger, and other apps that I installed that the programmers thought to be important to have auto started. Its so annoying everything you install the programmers make it autostart, like anyone really needs that stuff to be autostarted. So I just remove it and much faster. Usually in the options of the app there is option for auto start on system boot, just untick those options..

    OMG my computer is kind of old and definitely needs some cleaning up. It takes FOREVER. My laptop is much faster but it hardly has anything on it.
