Gone are those days when you have to wait for at least a minute for the Windows to boot.Though the Sleep and Hibernation technologies have reduced the boot time, Microsoft isn’t happy with it. Microsoft is making changes to the boot process.”Windows 8 will boot in 8sec” : that’s really amazing!

Microsoft achieves this boot speed by writing the kernel session to the disk instead of closing the kernel session as in Windows7. In simple words,Windows 8 will hibernate the session. Since there is less data to be written the process is quicker and faster than the usual hibernation. As a result reading the files and re-initializing the drivers becomes much more faster .

This new startup mode will have a great advantage on any system. What if the system has got a solid state drive(ssd)? I am eager to see the launch of beta version. How many of you are waiting for Windows 8?
