boot time longer than 2 minutes with SGE 6.00.1.31

StG123

Hello, it is possible to optimize the boot time with Safe Guard Easy 6.00.1.31?

With a new Windows 7 64Bit Sp1 is the boot time longer than 2 minutes.

Please reply me.

    Chris,

    You're still going to be looking at > 90 seconds regardless. SGN's kernel self load time is pretty poor compared to other encryption engines e.g. TrueCrypt loads in 2 seconds, PGP seems to be around 8 seconds. Sophos SGN documentation quotes typically 90 seconds added to boot time. Pretty poor really when you consider that many of the new bread laptops can load the entire OS from a conventional drive in less than 20 seconds but SGN still requires > 90 seconds to load around 100Mb's of itself. It's the primary reason we've not dropped SGN from our install set.
