For some reason the box came in with an extra 16XDVD+/-R which I did not

Vista OEM boot: 1'46" Shutdown 34.9"

Methodology:

Trolls around here quote various questionable "scientific" evidence in
support of their very biased opinions. Of course, they have no idea what an
accurate measurement is. It involves a lot of factors to control and
defining parameters carefully.

It is hard to make sure that the software on both XP and Vista are
equivalent but this seems to be roughly the case in my systems. I migrated
from XP to Vista taking all software with me and the projects continues for
years. Obviously on Vista now I have more source code for the same projects
than on XP.

All thing considered I am confident Vista is faster in boot than XP. I am
confident the man who posted that caricature result yesterday made a bogus.

I do have to mention the methodology.

In Vista the boot time was measured with a stop watch from the moment I
pressed the power button to the moment the sign in window with the globe
appeared and the music played. The step when I entered the password was
excluded. After that Vista dwindles a bit with the ring (counterpart of the
hour glass) rolling. It probably takes about 10 sec. That can be added to
the measurement. I doubt it is more than that.

In XP the situation is slightly different. At work XP shows a PW window
which is closed by a mouse click then the system proceed to load services.
This takes about 2 secs. The stopwatch is running. The hourglass is there to
see. You cannot do anything until it disappears. Once it disappeared THE
FIRST TIME I press the stopwatch. I know it is not the end of the story. In
about 5 secs it shows up again, then disappears, then appears again.

I think the whole thing takes roughly 20". Thus this time may be added to
XP. It is somewhat similar at the home system which has markedly less
software.

I was surprised that a much faster Vista (in terms of the app run) boots
slower than the ones on slower computers.

I hope Augustus will comment.

RE: Prroof of Vista Fasteness. FINAL

Just curious. Why the interest in boot time? The Vista sleep mode wakes up in
just over 5 seconds (with wireless network) with SP1. Powering down or
hibernating is so XP.

Your methodology is flawed. Your post is in all probability a deliberate
troll . The specs show the workstation with two SATA drives in RAID0. Which
presumable has your Vista Ultimate on it. So where's the XP Pro installed?
The same partition? A separate drive that's unlisted? You seriously expect
people to believe that your XP Pro partition in RAID0 takes 50% longer to
boot? Yesterday it was 400% longer.

Because to save face, AlexB is desperate to prove that Vista is better,
faster, more "whatever" than XP. He messed up his XP installations so badly
that he could't make anything work, so he decided that installing Vista
would solve his problems. His only choices were to reinstall XP or to go to
Vista, because he doesn't know anything about imaging drives (he thinks
Acronis True Image is malware). He doesn't know how to use anti virus apps
(He thinks Spybot S&D is all he needs to stay clean).
Reinstalling XP was too daunting for him and now he thinks he is the
knowledge master of Vista because it is still functioning on his machines.
He did say he has reinstalled it 15 times though.

Re: Prroof of Vista Fasteness. FINAL

You are nuts Augustus.

I have four (four) DELL computers. 3 of them are GX-280 with the
specification I showed. They ALL have Vistas on C: ALL. All except one have
Ultimate. The last one is Business.

I purchased recently a new DELL T7400. I copied the specification from their
email and pasted it below the GX-280 specs. This machine has one OS
installed: Vista Ultimate. It has no other OS, period. I brought it up for
comparison, Just FYI. It is an interesting result.

All other three machines (GX-280) which originally came with just one HDD
have a second SATA drives installed.

Machine 1: C: - Vista, D: - XP
Machine 2: C: - Vista, D: XP
Machine 3: C: Win2K, D: Vista Business

I ran comparative tests on machines 1 and 2. I also gave you a result of
Vista boot on OEM Vista Ultimate and the boot appeared to be longer than on
older DELL GX-280. I now understand why.

So, what is that you could not figure out? That I installed an extra HDD I
purchased at Best Buy into my three machines? Isn't it that impossible? That
I installed my MSDN licensed Vistas on all there of them?

I do not understand you question about RAID0? Ask DELL or you can go to
their website and put together an exact config I did. I did not talk to any
reps. I did it myself. I am beginning to doubt that you are an expert.

OK, My conclusion is: Vista IS FASTER in boot than XP. I had this intuitive
feeling before, now I got accurate measurements. If you add those additional
delays with hourglass in XP and ring in Vista, the result will; be even more
skewed in favor of VISTA.

Now, this is my explanation for that provocative and sarcastic post that
caused all this stir. I have two explanations:

(1) The guy is a crook, he never put together the machine he claims he did.
he simply made it up. the reason I think so is what you said about RAID0.
You said that with all your experience you do not touch RAID. Thus I am
suspicious.

(2) Perhaps he did build this machine and his Vista is slower than his XP. A
few factors must be considered. When I first installed my Vistas they took a
very long time to boot. Sometimes I was scared. Over time, in about a week
or so, the boot improved markedly and now it is FASTER than XP. I explain it
be the fact that perhaps when I installed my MSDN Vistas from a DVD which
was dated Jan 2007 or May, I do not quite remember, that install did not
have all the latest upgrades and it took time for the OS to scout for them,
etc. Also the OS must fill up all internal databases as to the computer
environment to run efficiently. It also takes time. Even if I turned the
indexing off there are internal databases the OS must build before it can
run efficiently.

This guy may find to his embarrassment that in a week his Vista will boot 15
times faster than on the first day (assuming, there was that first day). But
he will never come back and say that he was wrong. His goal is to divert
other people's interest from Vista, to scare them.

My test and methodology is not prefect due to many circumstances always
inherent in comparing software such as OS. it is a working set and I cannot
equalize the machines perfectly, however, I think it is as good as one can
get. If that guy said that he had a second HDD with XP installed, properly
tuned up and that XP booted much faster than it would have been a bit closer
to what I have.

Now, my configuration with 2 or 3 OS on every machine is not a fanciful
arrangement to play with OS. I am an application programmer. This
configuration arose historically while I was searching for the best
performance. If I had time now I would have gotten rid of all OS on all
partitions except Vista. On the other hand I keep them for the same reason
that it is very good to have an extra partition in case of emergency because
at times I can go to the other partition and tinker with the default one, to
load some files, etc.

Now this is the most interesting part of all but it is not related to the
subject at hand. I mentioned in my post I attached to the other guys OP that
when I went to my XP (a couple of days prior to the measurement) XP took
like 4 times longer to boot. It was not the case when I took the
measurement. I could not explain it until yesterday when I clocked the XP on
that partition I opened the IE mechanically. I lost in on August 15 and it
prompted me to switch to Vista. I could not repair it. I reinstalled XP from
another CD, this time a retail on teacher's license. Had to call MS for the
activation code. No Internet.

Yesterday when I clicked the IE, as I said, mechanically, I saw the home
page open for the first time in seven months. What the heck is that? The
machine somehow repair itself! then I saw XP downloading a couple of
upgrades. I think that when I turned it on first time a couple of days ago
it downloaded and installed the first batch of upgrades and it took so long
to boot. I did allow it to install those two upgrades, turned the machine of
and ran the test.

XP IS SLOWER THAN VISTA.

Re: Prroof of Vista Fasteness. FINAL

You must be an idiot! I have an experience of working as a systems
programmer in maintaining and writing add-ons for OS for a major IBM
mainframe 4341, I believe its name was at that time, among other things. It
had the size of a tennis court.

Vista is faster then XP.

Once again, every word in your post makes no sense and has nothing to do
with anything I said. I got all my information from reading old posts of
yours. Are you a liar?

Bullshit. The 4341 was a compact model designed to offer more
power and storage in less space than the 370 (which itself was more the
size of a small truck than of an entire tennis court). A typical 4341
installation consisted of two rows of waist-high cabinets.

The reason you don't know this is because you did all your data
entry from your college computer room using Wylbur and never saw a machine
room until you got your first job as operator in 1995.

You are an idiot pure and simple who cannot even read the hardware specs.

If you could you would have said something positive, something constructive.
It could have been a criticism. You could not even comprehend the problem.

Your mind is too primitive to understand simple things. How far did you go

It is possible that nothing I say makes any sense to you because of a known

Yes the problem is definitely known by all here to be you and your lack of
communication skills and your dangerous incompetence.
You forget that everyone here can go back and see your incredibly idiotic
posts.
Have you found your copy of Office 2005 yet? Or are you a liar?????

The only jaws knocked around here have been yours. I imagine you do sleep
well after you have been knocked out cold. That must be why you abandon so
many threads, especially threads where you pretend to help someone and then
just disappear when you don't know what to do. Is that sentence too long for
you to understand?

Just stop. Stop your ridiculous anserine behavior.

Alex, I would have gained a little bit of respect for you
had you not continued on with your obvious lie. Had you
just came out and admitted your mistake, I would have
accepted that.... we all make mistakes. But, you insisted
on maintaining the lie. Even though it was apparent you
did not know what you were talking about. Why would
you want to look so foolish and embarrass yourself so
exhaustively?

I do believe there could be a language barrier, it seems
clear English is not your first language, and that's okay.
I've embarrassed myself numerous times thinking I can
speak Spanish better than I really can. I don't know what
your native language is, but maybe things are getting lost
in translation and you're just not able to express yourself exactly
the way you really intended. Perhaps, some of the words we use
confuse you and you pretend to understand. Maybe, you aren't
as proficient in English as you think you are.

I'm just trying to figure out why you behave the way you do,
it really doesn't make any sense. If there's not some type of
language barrier or translation misunderstanding going on,
then one has to believe you are just a lying moronic fool.

There is one other possibility- you are purposely acting the fool.
Perhaps, that's how you get your jollies. I've thought about this
before, because I really find it hard to believe someone could be
so obtuse as you've proudly displayed here for all to see.

Admit your lie, be a man. That should translate easily enough.

Alas, if you have some sort of real mental deficiency and/or
psychosis, I apologize and understand you know not what you do.
Just keep striving to overcome and please take your medication.
