BOOT
The process of starting or resetting a computer. When first turned on (cold boot) or reset
(warm boot), the computer runs the software that loads and starts the computer's operating
system, which prepares it for use.

BOOT FILES
The system files needed to start Windows. The boot files include Ntldr and Ntdetect.com.

BOOT LOGGING
A process in which a computer that is starting (booting) creates a log file that records the
loading of each device and service. The log file is called Ntbtlog.txt, and it is saved in the
system root directory.

BOOT PARTITION
The partition that contains the Windows operating system and its support files. The boot
partition can be, but does not have to be, the same as the system partition.

PARTITION BOOT SECTOR

A portion of a hard disk partition that contains information about the disk's file system and
a short machine language program that loads the Windows operating system.

PARTITION
A portion of a physical disk that functions as though it were a physically separate disk.
After you create a partition, you must format it and assign it a drive letter before you can
store data on it.

On basic disks, partitions are known as basic volumes, which include primary partitions
and logical drives. On dynamic disks, partitions are known as dynamic volumes, which
include simple, striped, spanned, mirrored, and RAID-5 volumes.

HARDWARE CONFIGURATION
Resource settings that have been allocated for a specific device. Each device on your
computer has a hardware configuration, which may consist of IRQ lines, DMA, an I/O
port, or memory address settings.

3
INTERRUPT REQUEST (IRQ) LINES
Hardware lines over which devices can send signals to get the attention of the processor
when the device is ready to accept or send information. Each device must have a unique
IRQ line.

MEMORY ADDRESS:

A portion of computer memory that can be allocated to a device or used by a program or

the operating system. Devices are usually allocated a range of memory addresses.

DEVICE
Any piece of equipment that can be attached to a network or computer; for example, a
computer, printer, joystick, adapter, or modem card, or any other peripheral equipment.
Devices normally require a device driver to function with Windows.

DIRECT MEMORY ACCESS (DMA)

Memory access that does not involve the microprocessor. DMA is frequently used for data
transfer directly between memory and a peripheral device such as a disk drive

BASIC INPUT/OUTPUT SYSTEM (BIOS)

On x86-based computers, the set of essential software routines that test hardware at startup,
start the operating system, and support the transfer of data among hardware devices. The
BIOS is stored in read-only memory (ROM) so that it can be executed when you turn on
the computer. Although critical to performance, the BIOS is usually invisible to computer
users.

MS-DOS (MICROSOFT DISK OPERATING SYSTEM)

An operating system used on all personal computers and compatibles. As with other
operating systems, such as OS/2, it translates user keyboard input into operations the
computer can perform. MS-DOS can be easily accessed by using the command prompt,
while MS-DOS-based programs can be accessed through the use of shortcuts on the
desktop.

4
OS/2
A protected-mode, virtual memory, multitasking operating system for personal computers
based on the Intel 80286, 80386, i486, and Pentium processors. OS/2 can run most MS-
DOS-based programs and can read all MS-DOS disks.

SYSTEM PARTITION
The partition that contains the hardware-specific files needed to load Windows (for
example, Ntldr, Osloader, Boot.ini, Ntdetect.com). The system partition can be, but does
not have to be, the same as the boot partition.

BOOT MEDIA
1. Floppy
2. HDD
3. CD ROM

IN WHICH CONDITION , TO BOOT FROM FLOPPY ?

Flopply is a small scale storage device , we can't store more data in it, so we use the
floppy as a boot device just to transfer the system files into the Hard Disk. if the system
files of Hard Disk is currupt or crashes.
But remember that, if you are using the windows 98 and the system file is crashed
or currupted then you should make the floppy bootable or startup of windows 98, as the
same case in windows xp, you need the windows xp bootable floppy.

IN WHICH CONDITION, TO BOOT FROM CD ROM ?

Suppose the Hard disk windows is crashed or there is fresh hard Disk, or there you
need to delete and want to create the new partitions, at that time ,we boot from cd room,
but for that you need the bootable cd of windows which version that you are installation
now.

IN WHICH CONDITION , TO BOOT FROM HARD DISK,?

This is the common matter, often to run the windows , we boot from the hard disk,
the regular boot device or main boot device is hard disk for maintanence, installations, we
boot from cd Rom, now a days, we rarely use the floppy Device.

5
FILE SYSTEM
File system is the main key of windows to write the data on the Disk, without File
System there is no Possibility to write the data on the drive, it means we can't install the
Operating system, It means File system is a kind of system which anyhow need by
Operating System to install its system files. We Change/Create the Files system

DURING THE FORMATTING STEPS.

1. NTFS (New File Technology System)
2. FAT32 ( File Allocation Table)

Fat32 File System Doesn't Supports the NTFS FIle System Partition Or Drives But NTFS
File System Supports the Fat32 Files System.
In Windows 98, Me, we cant change the File System at NTFS, Its Default File
System is Fat32, THese Operating system DOesn't Recognize the NTFs File System Drive.
IN windows 2000 and Later Version, It supports both FAT32 File SYstem
and NTFS File System.
NTFS File system is the Latest file system at windows , which as more Feature and
security then the FAT 32 File System.
IN NTFS FIle system, there is facilities of log files, which helps you to restore the
data at the Prevous dates. and High Security , there is low chances of data loss.
But in Fat32 there is log file facilities it means without any third party Software ,
you can't restore the data, there is low security and lots of chances for data Loss.

FILE SYSTEM WIN98 W2K

------- ----- ----
Fat32 Supports Supports
NTFS Not Support Supports

(it means if you boot the System from Fat32 Bootable cd or Floppy,
then It will not show the NTFS Drives, Always note this Point any how)

TROUBLE SHOOTINGS:

Shows the Error During the Setup

--This is the Main Problem of RAM,Now a days , we get the Cd From Market that may
also cause the Problem of Error During the Setup. Make Confirm that cd Program is ok. If
still giving the Problem,then Replace the RAM Module
-- If again giving the Problems then Replace the new one and Try, Now if it works properly
then that RAM has Problems,
-- If you use the Maxium Net with Restricted sites, then there is Max Possibility of Viruses
into the Memory.

Hangs the Programs

- This type of Problems rises due to the Low Capacity of Memory
becoz that Programs needs the High Memory to access, if so then add some other capacity
of Memory and try , if again giving the same Probs, then replace the new one and try, It
may also the Probs of Software Cd , Read Carefully the System Requirement of Software
before installations.

No Display With Beep Sound

This is the problem that RAM Has No contact with your system, if the CPU Speaker
is attached properly then It Gives the Sound of Ti ssssssss Ti ssssssssssss Ti sssssssssssss
(Long Beep), if the CPu Speaker is not Attached , then it doesn't play the Sound,

-- Properly seat the RAM into the RAM Module Before Replacing the new one.
-- At this time you replace the RAM at Next computer or Change the New ONe and Try,
again the There is No Display then Join the CPU Speaker and Try, if there beep sound with
long one is coming then It is the probs of RAM, also try by cleaning the Slot of RAM
Module Before Seated the RAM.

-- If there is no Long Beep Sound and with No Display,then check the Power and Display
cable of Monitor properly.

It is caused by virus (I don’t remember the name, these virus names is never so easy to
remember). But this same virus will put the text “Hacked By Godzilla” in the Title bar on
IE.
After lot of searching I found information in Thai to fix this and I have at last fix my
computer.
To start with you will have to go in tools (in any folder window) and select “Folder
options” there you will click on “View” tap and there you will select “Show Hidden files
and folders” and un hake “Hide protected operating system file” (this selections are
important to find the files you need to delete).
You will then open Windows Task Manager (ctrl-alt-del) and select the “Processes” tap and
find “wscript.exe” and click on “End Process” (if there is more than one process with that
name you have to end all of them) after that you can close the “Task Manager”
Then you will click on start and select “Search” and search for “autorun.inf” (Search the
computer) You will then delete all the files that contains the text MS32DLL.dll.vbs (the
virus). (There of course should not be Autorun.inf in the C rooth). You will also delete the
virus from the system (C:\WINDOWS\ MS32DLL.dll.vbs)
Next step is to edit the Register (Like always you have to be very care fool in the registry
tools. Some mistake there can crash your computer)

38
Click on “Start” and select “Run” and type in “Regedit” and press “Enter”. Select
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE --> Software -->Microsoft -->Windows --> Current Version
--> Run. Find there “MS32DLL” and delete that entry.
Then select HKEY_CURRENT_USER --> Software --> Microsoft --> Internet Explorer --
> Main. There you find “Window Title “Hacked by Godzilla”” and you should delete that
entry. You can close the registry now.
Next you will click on Start --> Run and type in “gpedit.msc” and press “Enter”. Then you
will open “Group Policy”. There you will select User Configuration --> Administrative
Templates --> System --> and there you will double click on “Turn Off Autoplay” and in
the window there you should select “Enabled” and select “All drives” (they say in this Thai
webside that select all turn of Autoplay will be safer for not getting viruses). Now you can
close the Group Policy.
Next you will click on Start --> Run and type “msconfig” and press “Enter”. You will open
“System Configuration Utility”. Click on “Startup” tap and find the file MS32DLL take it
out (this was written like this in Thai, only part that didn’t use the word Delete, but they
probable mean that you have to delete the entry there. This entry wasn’t on my computer
so I didn’t do anything there on my PC). Then you will exit the “System Configuration
Utility” and select “Exit Without Restart” when prompt. After this you can open my
Computer and select “Tools” and “Folder Options” and “View” tap to change back there.
Select “Hide protected operating system file” and “Don’t show hidden files and folders”.
Then you will empty the “Recycle bin” and “Restart” your computer. This helps me with
my computer and I don’t get any “Autoplay” on my hard drive now.
