Trace Windows 7 boot/shutdown/hibernate/standby/resume issues

[MagicAndre1981]

I couln´t yet identify the culprit who is responsible for a long, long boottime.

 

the long boot comes from the slow HDD. It is busy for 90s:

 

 

So, replace your HDD with a SSD to kill this bootleneck.

My brother's having a problem where his PC will wake from standby but the monitor won't come on, so he has to hard reboot.

 

I can't see this in the trace. I only see that resuming the HDD is a bit slow (over 2s)

It didn't happen when I made this trace and he says it doesn't happen all the time but frequently enough to be annoying. I thought the trace might show something that's happening when resuming that could be causing it anyway. Is there a batch file I can make for him that will collect some useful files after he has to hard reboot?

 

He's also finding his PC is on in the mornings after putting it into standby before going to bed (I got the impression that when this happens he is generally able to wake the monitor), so I've made him a batch file to run powercfg -lastwake >>log.txt, so he can send me the log so that we can try and find out what's doing that.

I  actually have two SSD?

no, you have 2 Seagate HDDs.

xbootmgr is used to troubleshoot PERF issues only, not stability issues.

Gotcha, thanks. I'll start a new thread for my brother's problem.

JFYI , and OT (but not much ), while looking for other things I found this:

which I believe may be of use for some "strange" cases of slow boots.
