If you have a dual-boot system in your PC, maybe you will fell impatient for waiting your machine rebooting to choose the operating system you want to switch to. Today we will take a look at how to speed up reboot your PC from Windows 7 to XP or Vista or Ubuntu.
iReboot, a small piece of software, can make us skip the above step all together and instantly reboot into the operating system we want right from Windows. Their description shown below:
"Instead of pressing restart, waiting for Windows to shut down, waiting for your BIOS to post, then selecting the operating system you want to boot into (within the bootloader time-limit!); you just select that entry from iReboot and let it do the rest!"
Note: Don't worry about iReboot will reconfigure your bootloader or any dual boot configuration you have. Actually reboot will only boot the selected operating system once and go back to your default settings.
How to Use iReboot
Just download it (link below), run through the setup and select the default configuration. What's nice is that iReboot will automatically figure out what operating systems you have installed and appear in the taskbar. Go over to the taskbar and right click on the iReboot icon, then select which operating system you want to reboot into.
This method will add a check mark on the operating system you want to boot into.
The system will automatically load your choice and skip the Windows Boot Manager on your next reboot. If you want to reboot automatically, just select "Reboot on Selection" in the iReboot menu.
Also you can install iReboot into each Windows operating system to quickly access the others with a few simple clicks.
Note: iReboot does not work in Linux so you will have to reboot manually.
Now you need to wait for the Windows Boot Manager to load and select your operating system.
Note: iReboot works onWindows XP, Windows Vista,and Windows 7 as well as 64 bit versions of these operating systems. Unfortunately iReboot is only available for Windows but you can still use its functionality in Windows to quickly boot up your Linux machine. A simple reboot in Linux will take you back to Windows Boot Manager.
