acer D250 Boot Times

I got a D250 with a custom Rebuild XpProMce install of 1.94Gig
with a bootup time Power Off to Desktop All apps loaded 36.60 seconds
an a Shut down time of 9.49 seconds

 

acer D250 #2 with a custom rebuild of Windows7 4.02 Gig install
boot time from power off to fully loaded desktop 42.33 seconds
shutdown time 14.46 seconds

 

So whats the deets on your custom Win7 build?

 

?
if its the word "debt" wou wanted ...

windows 7
loads more services and the Dynamic-link library "DLL" files are larger.
Hence longer boot times

 

Fedora 11 dual boot with Win XP. 5.4 GB of data on Fedora partition. Power on to desktop= 36 seconds with wireless net connection. Power off to complete shut down 11 seconds. Can trim off some time by disabling some services but I'm satisfied with the speed for now.

 

No I was looking for details or "the deets" on how you customized the win 7 build. Like a how to...

 

i tryed Vlite did not like it ......
so i went for a Complete rebuild of the OS as in the DLL's and alot of the Exe's i edited alot of crap out of them that was not needed
so basicly thay came out smaller .
But to go step by step with you in txt it would be way to mutch to explane.
basicly the full install now has 3 options now

#1 Complete Install :6gig full install
#2 "Micro" Install :2.3 Gig install
#3 selective Install "install components from a list" : Depends on the components you install.

thats for windows 7

for my xp
I Totally Re built xp to XpProMceLH-4074.193
it took me about 6 months to complete it with some good friends to help with trying builds of it.
I use it in my carpc.
the Typ. install of that is 950meg to 2Gig
Not a hack EVERY thing works.

I have not installed that yet on the acer's
but will soon

 

Here's a pretty good posting about using vLite with Windows 7 on EEE PCs. Shouldn't be much different on the Acer.
