Boot-up and time it.
As I said, I don't know how long it takes, but I *do* know that it is
significantly longer than 45 seconds. I don't know when the next time
I will boot will be, by I'll try to remember to time it.
I just had to boot after an installation. I forgot and started timing
it too late, but it was something over five minutes. I wasn't
surprised at its being that long, because as I said, I load a lot of
stuff automatically when Windows starts.
Once again, that's because *I* want to. My point, once again, is that
we are all different, load differing amounts of things, and a
statement like yours, about a "max," is therefore wrong.
You may not agree, but your statement that "A good system is about 45
seconds max" is not at all correct.

And, does that take two minutes?
Three points:
1. I never time how long it takes. I boot very seldom, and I don't
care how long it takes.
2. I *think* (it's just a guess, but I'm pretty sure) it takes
somewhat more than two minutes.
3. Note that my list below is only a partial one.
Your statement "A good system is about 45 seconds max" is not at all
correct.

That is true, however I am assuming a good system is run by a good

that does not load
unnecessary programs when booting.
Just because multiple programs are loaded at bootup doesn't at all
mean that they are unnecessary. Take me, for example: I use several
programs almost all the time, and I load them at bootup, and keep them
loaded all day. To name just a few of them, they are Outlook, Maxthon,
Agent, Quicken, and OneNote.
Those might all be "unnecessary" to you. They are not to me.

Nothing wrong with turning it off.
Agreed. But when you turn the machine back on after "hibernate,"
the
desktop appears in less than five seconds (instead of
up-to-several-minutes from a cold start).
Where do you get the 'up to several minutes' from?
A good system is about 45 seconds max.
Many good systems are much more than 45 seconds. It depends largely
on
what apps you have starting automatically.
