  BASIC COMPUTER OPERATION ( BOOTING)  (MEANING/DESCRIPTION), TYPES, AND COMPONENTS OF WINDOWS DESKTOP Meaning of Booting 1. Booting is defined as the processing of starting the computer. 2. Booting can also be defined as the initial set of operations that the computer performs when power is switched on. Description of the Booting Process When the computer’s power is first turned on, the CPU (Central Processing Unit) initializes itself to look for the system’s ROM BIOS (Read Only Memory Basic Input Output System) which is the first program that runs every time the computer is turned on. The BIOS performs the Power-On Self-Test (POST), which begins by checking the BIOS chip and then testing CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) RAM. If the POST does not detect a battery failure, it then continues to initialize the CPU (Central Processing Unit), checking the hardware devices to ensure they are functioning properly. Once the POST has determined that all components are fu...
