Boot in 15 sec!! - Sold State w/ Dual Core Turion **VID**

Cool I was able to get a 10 second hibernate resume. This is 10 seconds including bios post. Motherboard is a foxconn MicroATX and it had some crazy mode called SUPERBOOT. I never even saw the bios screen it beep and u see xp resuming. 512mb of ram very fast. I wanted a smaller setup and now I am plagued with slower boot times like everyone else. I will buy a SSD next prob or if foxconn makes a mini itx board Ill get that.


My car log has the video its insane I haven't seen anyone beat that time with hibernate resume.

I was just absolutely amazed at how fast this thing booted. This is exactly what I was aiming for since my old computer took about a minute to boot.

Nice.. the PC takes longer to POST, than to load XP, eh?

I'm seeing that drive for $480.. ouch!

Looks like you have basically no bottleneck on the drive.

Very nice! Now I have to try and beat that time when I finish my Core 2 Duo system! :P

The Intel chip will prob be faster, if you can power it...

Yeh for real!

T7500 Core 2 Duo only takes max 35W. Quite an efficient processor because it uses 65nm technology.

I will have to wait to get the SSD for mine though. Prices will come down...eventually.

For some reason I thought they used more wattage.

I think my M2-ATX should suffice. It is arriving in a few days.

Do you know if you have the record for boot time in a car PC? I think you may have it.

Possibly! This has to be one of the fastest mini-ITX computers out there right now

I was thinking about putting two SSDs in a RAID 0 array, but because of your video it looks as if it won't speed up boot. You can't get much faster!! You need like a BIOS speeder-upper thingy or something :P
