[QUOTE="mrplow, post: 1555604, member: 38928"] It's interesting to know. Though, as I don't experience slow Windows boots, I'm a little skeptical that the BIOS emulation is adding much delay to the boot process. I guess without using the same hardware and forcing Windows 8 to use BIOS emulation then getting some timings. Then repeating the process using pure EFI it's hard to say for sure. Pleased you have the results you want either way. Out of interest was it just a standard/generic Windows 8 image? I have access to all incarnations of Windows but cannot see an EFI specific build [/QUOTE]
