Windows 10: The Boot time significantly increased from 5 to 30 sec

Hey there,

So my laptop (Acer Swift 3 SF315-52-87R5) had a charging port issue I had sent it back to the manufacturer where they had replaced the motherboard after receiving the laptop everything works fine there is no issue with the laptop.

I gave it fresh install of windows 10 and updated the drivers only issue I am facing is when the laptop turn on there is a 30 sec blank screen then I see the Acer Logo and laptop boots in 5 seconds and shows the login screen.

This was not the issue previously cause the bios time clearly was at 3 seconds and now when I see the bios time it at 43 Seconds.

I went to the bios and yes the Fast startup is on. The boot time is at 3 sec set by me.

I really don’t know what to do.

My laptop specs are

Intel - i7 8750U Ram - 8GB SSD - 256GB Graphics - Intel UHD 620 Graphics The Bios is at latest V1.08

Please guide me.

Boot time significantly Increased

Hello Guy and Gals , My system used to boot up Quite Fast ( almost instantly SSD Drive C ), i added a hard drive and noticed a significant increase in my boot up time , the drive i added , i decided that i would not use it ( Not Big Enough ), so i removed it,

I then noticed that my Boot time increased Significantly ( not almost instantly before i added the HD) i went to my disk management and checked my hard Drives and it asked me if i wanted to initialize disk 0 ?

The only Drive i am concerned with is the SSD Drive which is labeled C:\ in disk management that is where my OS is sitting , ( and also disk 1 ? ) i was given a prompt with the Default option GPT GUID partition table

i am not sure if i should go with the Default option ? and would choosing that option revert my C Drive to the Fast boot up time it had Previous to adding the HD ? any help would be appreciated

Thanks in Advance

Also i just found out that i have a whole HD missing , the was in 3 Partitions ... not looking good

 

Boot Time with SSD and Win 10 is 90 sec.


I have an ASUS 6730 with Win 10 and I just installed an SSD as the boot drive. Boot time is very long 90 sec. I have the latest BIOS version. I tried disconnecting all external drives. I turned off the old internal drive in Devices just in case the BIOS was searching the old drive for some reason. I have not tried physically disconnecting the old drive.

I have disabled all the unnecessary start-up apps

None of this has helped. I thought with the SSD I'd get a boot time of< 30 sec. I looked at the boot log and there was a long list of files but I couldn't tell which of these, if any, might be delaying the boot-up.

 

Boot Time with SSD and Win 10 is 90 sec.

Going back to Windows 7, there was a tweak posted on several forums as to how to speed up booting to Windows.
It knocks off 27 sec's from the boot time. I still use that tweak, even on 8.1 and Windows 10, and it still works!
Here's that tweak:

Shorten the Boot Time in XP, Vista & Windows 7 & 8, & Windows 10

Go to the start button, choose run, then type msconfig and press Ok.
On the system configuration window, choose the "Boot.INI" tab.

Check “No Gui Boot”, then lower the timeout to a more manageable time.
I choose 3 seconds in stead of 30. (windows won’t accept a lower number than 3)

Next choose advanced options.
This is where you can choose how many processors you have.
Most modern PC's are duo core (2 processors) with some quad core (4 processors, and there are even some with 8 Cores or more, )
then choose OK. The Windows default is only 1 core.

Now choose apply and OK, reboot and you should see a marked decrease in boot time, and an Increase in Run-Time efficiency.

It works!
