[cool_buzzy]

I have recently brought this Lenovo Ideapad Y570 -

But the laptop does not boot up in 10 seconds as claimed by Lenovo, it takes 24-25 seconds to start. Can some1 help me on how can I achieve that under 10 seconds boot-up time.

My Laptop's config is -

Windows Index is 5.9 for my laptop,
Processor - 7.4

Graphics for Windows AERO - 5.9

hey cool_buzzy,

could you provide me the link that mentions the Y570 being able to boot up in 10 seconds ?

Here is the link which says that Lenovo Y570 boots up in under 10 seconds. -

Here is another link where Lenovo boasts about the boot up time -

Go into your BIOS and assess your settings. (Press F2 during start up)

For example, I would modify the boot order and have your hard drive boot first and then the non-essentials in order of priority. Aso, there are features that 64BIT machines can take advantage of, make sure those are enabled in the BIOS as well.

My boot order in BIOS is

1 st the 64 GB solid state drive

then my 750 GB hard disk.

I could not figure out which options in BIOS allows u to take advantage of 64 bit OS in achieving fast boot-up , 

I suppose Lenovo had manipulated their system just to mislead people into believing that their laptops can boot up in under 10 seconds.

I never expected this from a company like Lenovo.

Your boot order looks fine to me. I did notice on the product page it said Lenovo has optimized the BIOS. Not sure what that means.

You said this is a new machine. Perhaps Windows is still applying updates? Or you've got too many start up items? I can't think of anything else...

They didn't lie to you, cool down, you just don't have your OS on your SSD. I am currently looking into what files I need to store on my SSD, but I know that that is your problem. Take everything but your OS off your SSD and you should see dramatic results.

Isn't that the exact thing that this "Rapid Storage" technology is supposed to do? 

In my opinion, the laptop should boot up in 10 seconds with factory settings.
