My only problem with my Win10 box (quad Xeon, 48 GB RAM) is that it takes a ridiculous amount of time to boot from a cold start, even after a proper shutdown. As in,
In my office, the computer usually takes up to 15 minutes to boot, but that's not a problem, it's a bonus: I have the time to go to the bar, drink a cup of hot coffee and have some nice word with the two beautiful Russian secretary girls working upstairs.
I love my slow computer for this, I won't replace it for no reason ![Cheesy :D](https://www.eevblog.com/forum/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)
Jezzuusszzzz ... WTF is ET phoning home...
15 minutes to boot ? WTF is that ?
My workstations are *ALL* systemd free.
They boot an INIT SystemV the very old fashioned way.
All checks are made in run level 1
disks are safely checked and run level 3 enters only after all passed OK
Run level 3 starts about 3 minutes after and put server mode in a minute long..
If
ALL ( i mean it all ) goes 100% pass OK XWindows took over in 15 seconds flat.
And I am always wondering how to save 5 or 10 seconds... every boot.
Jezzus WTF is ET doing in your life...
