It's the same PC dude.

There are different icons on the desktop when it's booted. Even installing a driver for a USB peripheral could change the boot time.

NVM... the left edge of one is covered up.

My comment stands. I can live without that extra fraction of a second delay in the GUI boot. :)

No their aren't.. Just the left of the right screen has been cropped off a bit.

Indeed! It was my first attempt at split screen. Not perfect but it worked.

I guess the short answer from both testing at home, and these videos is that there is no real difference. Boot times vary wildly anyway depending on what software is installed / removed / updated, performed maintenance, large amounts of data change etc

So, in summary, if your hobby is restarting your Windows 7 machine as many times as possible over the course of a day you might get an extra one in if you turn off the boot logo image.

How does this really help people though? :laugh:

Because it's fun to be a dick.

Also, this is of near zero value.

    • Halo Studios is teasing a big reveal for the series this October by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Halo Studios, formerly 343 Industries, is preparing to reveal what it has been working on since the release of Halo Infinite. Other than providing support for existing Halo works, like Master Chief Collection and Infinite, the Xbox first-party studio has been rather quiet about its next releases since 2021. In its monthly blog post on Halo Waypoint, the developer had a special section regarding its future plans and dropped a pretty heavy teaser about an October announcement. Just like at the 2024 Halo World Championship, this year, the studio is planning another special announcement for fans. "Over the past few weeks, there’s been a fair amount of speculation about when and where more details might emerge about any of the multiple projects Halo Studios is actively working on," says the studio. "We don’t usually comment on such matters, but this time we want to enter the chat and share a little more perspective for Halo fans who might be on the fence about whether to attend this year’s event." In October of last year, 343 Industries, the development team that has been making games in the series since Halo 4 in 2012, went through a major rebranding to become Halo Studios. While no exact details were given, alongside a teaser video, the studio said then that multiple projects were currently in development but are years away from being released. It also revealed last year that the Slipspace Engine it developed for Halo Infinite is also being left behind in favor of Unreal Engine 5. "Speculation is always fun, but if you want the official scoop on what Halo Studios has been working on, you won’t want to miss this year’s Halo World Championship," added the studio. "We really hope you’ll join us in Seattle this October!" The 2025 Halo World Championship is slated to take place on October 24 in Seattle. Halo will be turning 25 years old in 2026, and it's likely that a new game or a remaster project will be revealed during this event.
