Open up a command prompt and type the following:
powershell.exe /Command "&{ get-eventlog System | where-object {$_.EventID -eq "6005"} }"
Or if you're already at the PowerShell command prompt:
get-eventlog System | where-object {$_.EventID -eq "6005"}
FYI: Event ID 6005 corresponds to the event log service starting up... which happens every time the computer boots up.
