Hi Dietmar,
Yes normal startup you can expect above 20s + BIOS startup time.
Resume from HDD can be extremely fast.
If you have one or two non-boot critical drivers that do not support hibernation. You can make an ugly workaround.
Make sure that you do not install drivers before you run following program.
Make program that will.
1. Copy driver files to their places. Remove all driver hardware nodes, and do all other pre installation operations.
2. Hibernate but program should stay active after resume.
Resume:
3. Wait for all drivers to install. (There is a small chance that you might need to tell PnP to reenumerate hardware)
4. Run your program.
This should work.
Best regards,
Slobodan
