Diskeeper says new HyperBoot can slash Windows startup times in half

06.10.2009

Unlike Lenovo, HyperBoot does not tweak the PC device drivers nor its BIOS. HyperBoot is not yet good at accelerating the loading of Windows virtual machines on Macs either, Beckman said.

HyperBoot does delay the loading of some services and apps until after the Windows desktop appears. Those continue to load in the background, meaning that applications that users try to open immediately after the startup will load up slower than normal, Beckman said.
