Rules

Loading BG3 1. Double-click on desktop from cold computer start 2. Hit space or ESC or whatever to bypass logos 3. Hit spacebar to continue when prompted 4. Hit Continue button.

Note that waiting for the logos to play fully, or hitting Load button then picking a save would add another minute or more, and it'd be all over.
I'm sure slightly newer computers and 3D cards could do a little better, but my system is no slouch, especially given how old this game is and that games are designed for the average cards of the time, not the bleeding edge.
