Windows 7 Startup & Shutdown Times
| Posted on November 5, 2009 at 11:51 PM |
It's been a week or so since installing Windows 7 on my desktop computer. I have all the software that I need for now, and have about eight programs starting up with the system. These programs are:
Live Messenger
Avira Antivir
Intellitype
Slickrun
Google Talk
MagicJack
Sidebar Gadgets (Comes with Win7)
Bitmeter 2
As mentioned before, here are the system specs:
Acer Aspire Desktop
AMD Athlon 64 x2 3600+ 2Ghz
4GB of DDR2 RAM
Main Hard Drive= 250GB Hitachi SATA
GeForce 7300 GT Video Card
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit, Clean Install
When starting the computer, it takes about one minute before the desktop appears, and a few more seconds beyond that for the computer to be usable. Below is a video of the startup and shutdown process.
