Getting my T420s to boot faster: Your collective wisdom
I have a brand spanking new 1 week old T420s and I’m very happy with it so far.
I have been reading about Lenovo’s 7 second rapidboot extreme, and I get that it will only work on preloaded machines with the special BIOS etc. Mine is a work machine, so it’s has our standard company Win 7 image as well as other software. I am interested to make mine boot as fast as possible though, within the limitations I have. So far it boots in around 40s - 44s, which seems far slower than other T420s. We use disk encryption, so I measure it from when I’ve entered the encryption software password (and Win starts booting from that point), to the desktop when the cursor stops spinning. To the actual desktop itself is around 35s - 40s.
My machine is: T420s, i5-2540M, 8Gb RAM, Intel 160Gb SSD, Win7 64 bit. Some of the software that I need to have: Sophos disk encryption, Cisco AnyConnect VPN client, Iron Mountain Connected Backup, Office 2010 and Symantec anti virus.
According to this article, this is what it takes for a 7s boot:
http://www.lenovoblogs.com/lenovofiles/2011/01/26/lenovo-enhanced-experience-2-10-second-pc-boot/
1. Custom UEFI firmware from Phoenix (even if I could get it, UEFI doesn’t currently work with my disk encryption software)
2. Native UEFI mode 64-bit install of Windows 7 (GPT format) (again, not an option)
3. Intel 160GB SSD (M-class) (not sure if I have M-class, but I have an Intel 160Gb SSD)
4. Driver and service optimizations and tuning (Something I can do!)
5. One part secret sauce (??!?!)
So clearly all I can do is play with the loading of startup and services. Please note I’m not an IT person, but I’m comfortable tinkering with settings, within reason as I can’t have the machine crash. I have downloaded all the latest drivers, and installed the RapidBoot software.
Below is a snapshot from services.msc showing what services that are still automatically starting up. Honestly I don't know what some of the services are so haven't been willing to play with them in case it goes pear shaped. I would like to delay the VPN, iron mountain backup, WWAN and antivirus, but not sure where to do that, as i couldn't do it here.
So do any of you guys have suggestions on what I can do to make it boot faster?
Thanks for any assistance you can provide!!!!!

Soluto is one such free software that you can use to check the bootup speed and what each element is conributing to the time. There are 3 divided areas that you can tweak (no way / up to you / no brainer). Each service you can read what is the function and whether you can turn off or delay..
Thanks Ideasmiths. I did try Soluto, but then i uninstalled in. I noticed the software sends back through to themselves all the startup info and stats of your machine. I didn't have time to read through and understand the implications of it all, so i wasn't comfortable with it.
I did notice Soluto could delay loading stuff like the VPN etc, which made a difference to the boot up time. But I also figured if the SW could do it, there must be a way i can configure it myself to do the same thing?
And I guess in a way thats what i'm asking - how can i delay the startup of the non essential SW that can't be set to Automatic (Delayed). Agree, I'm not after all out boot speed at the expense of system stability. And there is SW i still need, but I don't need them at startup.
ColonetONeill, thats exactly what I want to do - delay the startup of the antivirus, the VPN, and the backup software. But I'm not sure how to do that. I completely disabled the VPN, and it shaved 3s off the boot time.
Thanks for the suggestion of eBoostr. I'll have a look.

Is there a way to get the sbRIO to boot faster?
I'm using the Robotics Starter Kit (with the sbRIO 6931) and I've built and deployed the Roaming example.
From a cold reboot, it takes 63 seconds before the program starts running.
This seems too long for a High Performance Realtime system.
The cRIO application we use for our FRC robots boot much faster than this.
I dumped the serial debug log and found that everything up to (and including) "NI-VISA Server 5.0 started successfully." takes 23 seconds, but then "Welcome to LabVIEW Real-Time 10.0" takes another 40 seconds.
Any way to speed this transition up?

Get a life? This IS my life!Hi Esmail
I checked out that link, but there's not a lot to go on.
I'm already using a Static IP, so that's not the problem. The boot blasts right past that step.
Beyond that, I'm not sure what "uninstall any software that you don't really need from MAX and disable services you don't want from the project" means.
Why would there be any "services" in the project that I don't need?
I don't see any provisions to remove them in the Project Build specification.
All unused VI's are already excluded.
If I eliminate stuff from MAX (assuming I know what to eliminate, and how to do it) wouldn't that remove it from all my projects?
My problem is that I have the Academic License installed, so essentially "Everything" is on this machine.
I need to ensure that any changes I make won't effect other projects.
Since I'm working with the vanilla "Roaming" application that comes with the Robotics Starter Kit, can you give me ONE example of something I can remove to make it boot faster.
If I can work through that item, then I can probably figure out other things I can also remove.
I just need a starting point.
Thanks
Phil.

Windows 8/8.1 Hybrid Boot (Fast Startup) Problem
Hello, about one week ago I was using my laptop directly on power (without my battery), to preserve my battery a bit. I had an unexpected power cut and my machine went off. When I turned it on again, it seemed as if I was stuck in a boot loop. I
would come up saying it's installing an update, reaches 100% then reverts and restarts. It did this about two times. Now it had installed an update before, the very first time I turned it on that day before the power cut happened.
I managed to access the advanced options, tried startup repair. It had told me it failed. I tried booting again and I got through this time around. When I logged in, I ran sfc/scannow, Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth and I also ran
Check Disk to ensure that no damages had been done to my laptop.
Everything seems fine but I noticed one thing was different. I had dual booted my laptop with Windows 7 using a VHD from before. When I am on the Windows 8.1 Pro side, if I just shutdown then power on again. It would take me straight to my Windows
8.1 side. When I logged in, I would notice that in the CPU up time section, in the Performace Tab in task manager, my CPU Time wouldn't be starting from 0:00:00:00, it would have been a continuation from how long the system was on before.
I read up on Hybrid Boot so I know it stores the session to disk so that is to be expected.
But ever since that incident, whenever I boot up. It takes me to the os selection screen prompting me to select an OS. When I log in on Windows 8.1 and I check the CPU time, it has start from 0:00:00:00, so it would say it's been on for
just over a minute or so.
Now this has lead me to believe that something is wrong. My machine still boots up very fast. I also checked my power options, and fast startup is enabled. I checked the registry and HyberBootEnabled is set to 1, which means hybrid boot is
on. I also turned off hibernation so that it would delete my hibernation file and re-enabled it, so that it would rebuild my hibernation file.
Nothing appears to be wrong with my system, everything else functions the way it used to but it's that one issue which I've noticed that has me slightly concerned that some setting may have been disabled or some file has been corrupted, as why to
it doesn't boot the way it used to.
My guess, is that it is not resuming the session stored. That's just my guess.
I have then since removed my dual boot configuration and reloaded my BCD which I had exported before I dual booted. So now I'm back to original boot configuration. I no longer get sent to os selection screen, as there is only one os now. But
the issue with CPU up time always starting from 0:00:00:00 is still present.
If anyone knows what's the real issue at hand or anything at all that may help, I'm kindly asking for your help.

Seems you done almost all to solve this yourself. So I'm only doing a checklist to see if you completed these things.
Type in the search disk, choose,
free up disk space, unselect all, except temporary
files
Type in search Po bu, click, what the power buttons do, select,
change settings that are currently unavailable, uncheck turn on fast boot, Check, Hibernate to show in powermenu, then goto power menu, setup your hibernate settings. Shutdown computer, poweroff, upplug cord
and battery, wait for a minute then bootup.
Go into your bios and make sure your booting from UEFI, if your using UEFI, (if not then the functions and benefits of fastboot will not
work) and fastboot is enabled in the bios. If all is correct boot to your system.
Type in po bu again and enable turn on fast boot. Turn off the system again and power it off. Startup, lets see if all is working now -

Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer. -

How can i get my Powerpc to boot from a PCIe drive
Hi, I just upgraded my PowerMac G5 Quad 2.5 with 16GB of ram & two 1.8 tyrabite drives. My problem is, I also installed a Velocity solo x2 PCIe card
for a solid state drive. the system recogizes the drive but I'm having a problem with getting my system to boot from that PCIe card drive. Please if anyone
can help me I greatly appreciate it.If you cannot get the ssd to boot, you can move folders to the ssd.
Unix command ln -- The Unix make link command. I have a copy of virtual PC. It insists on using a folder in my documents folder for saving all of the virtual machine information. This folder is rather large. I used the terminal command ln to move the folder to my external hard drive. Virtual PC had no problem with this move. I do not think that Mac applications notice the ln redirects.
You can use the Unix command ln to redirect a reference to folder on your small partition to a folder on your larger partition. You need to be careful when you pick the folder. You best avoid any system folder, those folders needed at startup. You could pick some user data folder. Home folders, that is folders in /Users, are a good choice. Please try this when you have a full backup.

Desktop items get unsorted after cold boot on Snow Leopard 10.6.2
The Desktop items get unsorted after cold boot on Mac OS X 10.6.2 (Snow Leopard).
I have about 25 items (mostly aliases of files or folders) on the Desktop, sorted as vertical rows on left and right side of the screen.
When the issue hits, they all get located as vertical rows on the right side of the screen, unsorted in relation to their custom relative position before the issue.
Any idea? Thanks.Hi ApMaX
According to wikipedia the .DS_Store files on Mac OS X contain the metadata for icon position and view settings. If the file permissions for the Desktop .DS_Store file were incorrect then one could assume that the icon position and view settings aren't being saved.
First let us check the permissions on the .DS_Store file for the Desktop we can do this by running the following command in Terminal (located in the Utilities folder)
ls -ld /Users/<<UserName>>/Desktop/.DS_Store
replacing <<UserName>> with the short name of your user account (name as viewed in the finder sidebar)
On my system I get the following permissions readout
-rw-------@
Further info on .DS_Store files: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.DS_Store
If your permissions differ then we will look at correcting them.

Hello. Since accepting the upgrade to the current version of I Tunes (11.4) I have been unable to get the application to boot. I receive the message that I Tunes was not installed correctly and Error 7 (Windows Error 193). I have uninstalled/reinstalled I Tunes several times and this has not resolved the issue. I also uninstalled/reinstalled Microsoft.net Framework 4 since this was suggested by Apple support. This also has not resolved the issue.
When I reinstall I Tunes, I get a message that the “Service ‘apple mobile device’ failed to start.” Verify you have sufficient privileges to start system services. I attempted to manually start the Apple Mobile Device service but get a pop up stating, “Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.”Unsure what I should try next.For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component, such as Apple Mobile Device Support, won't install normally.
In your case I suggest you start with a clean download of the setup file using the direct link. If reinstalling AMDS alone doesn't work try tearing everything down again.

Can anyone help me. I have iPhoto 9.2 and Mac OS X 10.7.2.
Every time I open iPhoto 9.2 and try to go to photo stream iPhoto quits unexpectedly. When I reopen I get "iPhoto has detected inconsistencies in your library. Please click Repair to avoid any potential problems."
I have read plenty of the posts on the subject and it seems that deleting the "3ivx" fixed the problem. I looked at the detaied reports and see where it says "
Library/Application Support/3ivx" etc..
On my report it says "/Library/Application Support/iLifeMediaBrowser/*/iLMBiPhoto8Plugin". Does this help with an answer?I am also having this crashing problem. I am running lion on a 2010 mac mini. My iPhoto library is kept on an external drive. I just upgraded to iPhoto 11 and everytime I try to enable photo stream the app crashes.

HT4528 I cannot get my iPhone to boot up the iOS7.
I cannot get my iPhone to boot up the iOS7. It is downloaded and my phone will take me to the start up screen, but after I enter my internet information it says it "server cannot be reached."
many folks have been having activation issues in the last few hours... your issue maybe related.
best advice i've heard is to wait a while... if you cant get past the start up screen after a while then running thru the iphone ts steps is what i'd do... http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/ -
When I try to upgrade to Mountain Lion OS form Lion OS, after I select the "Buy App" option I get this "We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed" message, what is causing this problem, how can I find a solution, is someone else having this problem?
The only thing that worked for me was to boot in safe mode.
Power down. Then press power button and hold 'shift' key until grey screen with progress bar appears... Once booted and logged in just open safari and browse to applestore.
No trouble at all once I did this.
Reminder: create full backup before you upgrade OS
Hope it helps. -
when I open iphoto I get an error message that says Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable, I have tried restarting computer and opening iphoto whilst holding down option and command key, but then I get the following message-Your photo library is damaged or unreadable and cannot be opened. Please restore from a backup. Please can anyone help?
Make a back up now. If you have any vaule in Your photos always have a back up.
Most Simple Back Up
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex:
Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
In Library Manager the Rebuild command is under the File menu. There's also an excellent Help available.

i tryed to connect my ipod classic to my computer an every time i do it will start flikering an when i conected it to a wall plug it just get stuck on the boot logo it had the the red x but i fix that but now its just stuck on the boot logo i need my ipod please tell me what i need to do pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeee
The big Red X is a sign of iPod undertaker coming, so you only have temporary extension and put it in Comatose state.
Some laptops have only one high power USB 2.0 port, so if it flickers, try the others on your laptop.
However try the following, (bear with me if you have done all these.)
Toggle the hold switch, make sure you don't see the red marking.
Press Menu and Center butoons for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON, then release the buttons.
If the above solve the frozen Apple Logo, then do a Disk Diagnostics, read this earlier post from tt2.

Don't worry if yours is Windows, the process apply to the iPod and not the PC.
Good Luck
