PG,
In my effort to keep this flame burning...
I would be pleased to offer my service to beta test an upgrade patch to resolve this mystery. I have BIAB running on both a Win7 and Win8 machine and am experiencing some of the longest boot times and the broadest variablity reported on both of them.
I can tell you my evaulation as a beta tester will get my highest priority.
hehe, hope I am not being presumptuous!
