Notes By Rafiq Tamboli


A computer automatically runs a basic program
called BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) as soon
as it is switched on or the power button is pushed
on.
The BIOS first does a self-test. If the self-test
shows that the system is fine, the BIOS will load
the Operating System.
Booting is just the process of starting or resetting
the computer.

To make sure your computer is locked, you have login-IDs and passwords. A
login and password is like a key to the lock which allows you to use the
computer.
