10.1 Instant Boot

10.1.1 Introduction

Instant Boot, a user-friendly tool that allows you to turn on your PC in just a few

seconds, provides a much more efcient way to save energy, time, money, and

improves the system’s running speed *. It is applicable to Windows

7 / 7 64-bit

/ XP / XP 64-bit.

Instant Boot leverages the S3 and S4 ACPI (Advanced Conguration and Power

Interface) features which normally enable the Sleep/Standby and Hibernation

modes in Windows

to shorten boot time. By calling S3 and S4 at specic times

during the shutdown and startup process, Instant Boot allows you to enter your

Windows

desktop in a few seconds.

There are two modes of Instant Boot available: Fast Mode and Regular Mode.

In Fast Mode, it uses S3 and takes only a few seconds for the OS to resume

to working state, which is 10 times faster than the traditional boot time (50 to

60 seconds). Even the Regular Mode is 3 times faster than the traditional boot

time.

Instant Boot guarantees a clean Windows

boot to consume less power, time

and money without any accumulated garbage data, and you can still keep your

data safe even when the power is cut off. Also, Windows

update speed will

become faster.

* This function is applicable ONLY to individuals that do not secure ID and Password to their

systems.

* The boot time depends on hardware conguration.
