What is an OPERATING SYSTEM?

• An operating system (OS) is system software that manages

computer hardware and software resources and provides
common services for computer programs. (wikipedia)
• An operating system (OS) is the program that, after being
initially loaded into the computer by a boot program, manages
all the other programs in a computer. The other programs are
called applications or application programs. The application
programs make use of the operating system by making requests
for services through a defined application program interface
(API). In addition, users can interact directly with the operating
system through a user interface such as a command line or a
graphical user interface (GUI). (whatis.com)

Architecture
 or

Why is there a & ?

• The terms 32-bit and 64-bit refer to the way a computer's processor
(also called a CPU), handles information.
• The 64-bit version of Windows handles large amounts of random access
memory (RAM) more effectively than a 32-bit system.

Difference between 32 bit and 64 bit
Processor Architecture

• 32-bit and 64-bit are commonly used to describe

processor architecture or design.
• A 32-bit processor includes a 32-bit register, which can store 232 or
4,294,967,296 values.
• A 64-bit processor includes a 64-bit register, which can store 264 or
18,446,744,073,709,551,616 values.
• Therefore, a 64-bit register is not twice as large as a 32-bit
register, but is 4,294,967,296 times larger.
• That's a big difference, but how does it affect computing
performance?
Difference between 32 bit and 64 bit
Processor Architecture
• The CPU register stores memory addresses, which is how the processor
accesses data from RAM.
• One bit in the register can reference an individual byte in memory, so a
32-bit system can address a maximum of 4 gigabytes (4,294,967,296
bytes) of RAM. The actual limit is often less – around 3.5 gigabytes –
since part of the registry is used to store other temporary values besides
memory addresses.
• A 64-bit register can theoretically reference 18,446,744,073,709,551,616
bytes, or 17,179,869,184 gigabytes (16 exabytes) of memory.
• This are several million times more than an average workstation would
need to access. What's important is that a 64-bit computer (which means
it has a 64-bit processor) can access more than 4 GB of RAM.
• If a computer has 16 GB of RAM, it better have a 64-bit processor.
Otherwise, at least 12 GB of the memory will be inaccessible by the
CPU.
What 32-bit and 64-bit combinations are
compatible and will work together?
Bottom Line:
•Usage of higher bit number is highly
recommended if you want a faster
performance
•64-bit systems are backward-
compatible with the 32-bit systems
•COMPATIBILITY of bits
System Requirement
What are BIOS, CMOS, UEFI?
 BIOS
•Basic Input Output System
•Firmware that is built into the
computer
•Initializes the Computer’s hardware as
the computer is being booted.
The BIOS in a PC comes from three possible
sources:

• Motherboard ROM
• Adapter card ROM
(such as that found
on a video card)
• Loaded into RAM
from disk (device
drivers)
Can you use the BIOS to enable more RAM?
BIOS SET-UP UTILITY

• Main – System time, date, HDD type, etc.

• Advanced – infrared port settings, parallel port
settings, etc.
• Security – password settings to set up utility.
• Others – low battery alarm, system beep, etc.
• Boot – boot order of the computer.
• Exit – set up utility exit.

What is a Driver?

• In computing, a device driver is a computer program that operates

or controls a particular type of device that is attached to a
computer. A driver provides a software interface to hardware
devices, enabling operating systems and other computer programs
to access hardware functions without needing to know precise
details about the hardware being used. A driver communicates
with the device through the computer bus or communications
subsystem to which the hardware connects. (wikipedia)
• A device driver is a program that controls a particular type of
device that is attached to your computer. There are device drivers
for printers, displays, CD-ROM readers, diskette drives, and so on.
When you buy an operating system, many device drivers are built
into the product. (WhatIs.com)

What is Disk Partitioning?

• Disk partitioning or disk slicing is the creation of one or more regions on a hard
disk or other secondary storage, so that an operating system can manage
information in each region separately. (wikipedia)

• A partition can be thought of as a division or "part" of a real hard disk drive. A

partition is a logical separation from the whole drive, but it appears as though
the division creates multiple physical drives. (lifewire)

• A section of the hard drive that is separated from other segments. Partitions
help enable users to divide a computer hard drive into different drives or
different portions for a number of reasons. For example, allowing
multiple operating systems to run on the same device. (computerhope)
Type of Disk Partitioning

•AUTOMATED PARTITIONING
•MANUAL PARTITIONING
Steps in Partitioning a Hard Drive

Use "Delete" to remove the existing

partitions. Now select "New" to
create new partitions in the
Unallocated space. You can choose to use the entire empty
space, or just a part of the space.
Steps in Partitioning a Hard Drive

Choose to use half of the 20 Windows will, by default, create

GB available. the "System Reserved" partition.
Steps in Partitioning a Hard Drive

• In this screen you see the

"Reserved Partition" of 100 MB.
Keeping this is recommended.
• Next, you have the options of
creating a new partition in the
unallocated space, extending
the selected partition into the
unallocated space, shrinking
the selected partition, or
deleting one or all existing
partitions.
Steps in Partitioning a Hard Drive

• Choose extend the partition

into all the unallocated space
File System

• A filesystem is the methods and data

structures that an
operating system uses to keep track
of files on a disk or partition; that is,
the way the files are organized on the
disk. It also used to refer to a partition
or disk that is used to store the files or
the type of the filesystem.
• Is a process that manages how and
where data on a storage disk is stored,
accessed and managed.
• Before a partition or disk can be used
as a file system, it needs to be
initialized, and the bookkeeping data
structures need to be written to the
disk. The process is called making a
file system.
New Technology Files System (NTFS)

• NTFS ( New Technology File

System) is a proprietary file
system developed by Microsoft.
• Uses for storing and retrieving
files on a hard disk.
• Windows 7 utilizes the NTFS file
system which is the most
commonly used system nowadays.
Other commonly used file systems
include File Allocation Table 32
(FAT 32) and Hierarchical File
System (HFS).
