Boot Up Vista In 4 Seconds

Posted on Nov 14, 08 10:28 AM PDT

How long does it take to boot up your Vista-powered machine? Happy that it clocks in at under a minute? Well, be prepared to wipe away that smug look from your face as ASRock has managed to develop a BIOS update for selected motherboards that promise to boot up both XP and Vista-powered systems up to 10 times faster compared to standard PCs, which could potentially reduce Vista boot-up times to a mere 4 seconds - the same amount of time as an exotic Italian supercar hitting 100 from 0. To put it in a nutshell, ASRock seemed to have added the processing baggage to the backend of the shutdown process, booting the OS in the process while making it enter a suspended mode which is raring to go live the next time the power button is hit. Too bad this solution is limited to just a single user account without any password protection.
