Boot Times!

Hi all! I was just wondering what the boot times of all your PCs were. I have just found mine out! I was quite excited to find out that my boot time is just above 11 seconds, around 11.12 to be exact. I am running Windows 7 Pro 64bit off of a Samsung 840 Pro 256gb SSD. I started the timer as soon as my monitor displayed, "Windows is starting up", and I stopped the time the start menu button was loaded and so were all of my icons. I am interested to see what other times people are receiving! Thanks!

10 seconds from when I pressed the on/off button to Windows Starting, then 19 seconds from there to Windows Welcome, then another 21 seconds from the Welcome screen to Desktop. Though the Welcome - Desktop took longer than normal, so it's usually shorter than 50 seconds.

30 seconds from pressing the power button on the case and having google chrome loaded and ready to go. And it's not a brand new install of windows been running for 9 months now. No fast boot settings or anything special either.

It was 25 seconds from pressing power button and seeing my desktop.

8 seconds from pressing the power button my pc hit the bios.
