1 What You Will Learn... Computers Are Your Future Chapter 4 The two major components of operating system software Why a computer isn t useful without an operating system The five basic functions of an operating system What happens when you turn on a computer The three major types of user interfaces System Software 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 2 What You Will Learn... System Software The strengths and weaknesses of the most popular operating systems The seven essential system utilities Data backup procedures Troubleshooting techniques 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 3 System software includes all of the programs needed to keep a computer and its peripheral devices running smoothly Two major categories of system software are: Operating systems (OS) System utilities 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 4 The Operating System (OS): The Computer s Traffic Cop The operating system is a set of programs that perform certain basic functions with a specific type of hardware The functions of the operating system are: Starting the computer Managing programs Managing memory Handling messages from input and output devices Enabling user interaction with the computer 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 5 Starting the Computer Booting The process of loading or reloading the operating system into the computer s memory The booting processes are: Cold boot Loads the OS when the power is turned on Warm boot Reloads the OS when the computer is already on 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 6 1
2 Starting the Computer The computer copies the kernel from the hard drive into the computer s memory The kernel: Is the central part of the operating system Starts all applications Manages devices and memory Resides in memory at all times Performs other essential functions Starting the Computer The step-by-step booting process (click for each step): BIOS is loaded Users are authenticated Power-on Self-test is completed System Utilities are loaded Operating System is loaded System configuration is accomplished 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 8 Step 1: The BIOS and Setup Program ROM (read only memory) Permanent and unchanging memory BIOS (basic input/output system) The part of the system software that includes the instructions that the computer uses to accept input and output Load To transfer from a storage device to memory ROM loads BIOS into the computer s memory Setup program A special program containing settings that control the computer s hardware The program can be accessed while the BIOS information is visible Step 2: The Power-On-Self-Test (POST) POST (power-on-self-test) A series of tests conducted on the computer s main memory (random access memory or RAM), input/output devices, disk drives, and the hard disk BIOS conducts a Power-On-Self-Test (POST) to check the input/output system for operability The computer will produce a beeping sound and an error message will appear on the monitor if any problems are encountered 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 10 Step 3: The Operating System (OS) Loads BIOS searches for the OS Settings in the CMOS complementary metal-oxide semiconductor determine where to look for the OS The operating system s kernel is loaded into the computer s memory The OS takes control of the computer and begins loading system configuration information Step 4: System Configuration Registry A database that stores information about peripherals and software Peripheral Device connected to a computer Di Driver A utility program that makes peripheral devices function properly The system is configured from the operating system s registry Drivers are loaded into memory 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 12 2
3 Step 5: System Utilities Loads System utilities are loaded into memory Volume control Antivirus software PC card unplugging utility Step 6: Users Authentication Authentication or user login occurs User name Password The user interface starts, t enabling user interaction ti with computer programs 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 14 Managing Applications Single-tasking operating systems run one application program at a time Multitasking operating systems have the ability to run more than one application program at a time Multitasking is accomplished by: A foreground application The active program or program in use One or more background applications Inactive program(s) or program(s) not in use Example of Multitasking Background application Foreground application 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 16 Managing Programs Preemptive multitasking Enables the operating system to regain control if an application stops working Managing Memory Computers use memory to make processing more fluid The operating system allocates memory areas for each running program; itkeeps programs from interfering with each other The operating system uses virtual memory as an extension of random access memory (RAM) 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 18 3
4 Managing Virtual Memory hard disk swap file page swapped in most recently transferred data or program instructions Virtual memory management page swapped out memory least recently used data or program instructions Handling Input and Output Input and output devices generate interrupts, or signals, that tell the operating system that something has happened The OS provides interrupt handlers or mini-programs that begin when an interrupt occurs Interrupt trequest (IRQ) lines handle the communications i between input/output devices and the CPU An IRQ conflict causes system instability when two devices try to use the same IRQ line 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 20 Providing the User Interface The user interface is that part of the operating system with which the user interacts with a computer User interface functions: Start application programs Manage disks and files Shut down the computer safely Graphical User Interface (GUI) Graphical user interface (GUI): Uses graphics to create a desktop environment Icons (small pictures) represent computer resources Programs run within on-screen windows 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 22 Menu-driven User Interface Menu-driven: Text-based menus are used to show all of the options available to the user Command-Line Interface Command-line: The user is required to type keywords or commands in order to enter data or give instructions 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 24 4

8 System Update Troubleshooting Computer startup failure: Use a boot disk (emergency disk) in the floppy drive Configuration problems after adding new peripherals: Start the computer in Windows safe mode Access safe mode by pressing the F8 key during the startup process Windows Update keeps the operating system up to date windowsupdate.microsoft.com 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 44 System slowdown: Scan for viruses Check the CPU fan Check BIOS options Defragment the hard disk Troubleshooting Shutting Down Your System Click Start, then Turn Off Computer Standby - low power state Shut Down turns computer off Restart reboots computer 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide Prentice-Hall, Inc. Slide 46 Chapter 4 Summary Two of the system software components are the operating system and system utilities The operating system coordinates the functions of a computer s hardware and provides support for application programs An operating system manages programs, memory, and input/output devices, and it also provides a means of communicating with the user The six steps to start a computer are loading the BIOS, power-on self-test, load operating system, configure system, load utilities, authenticate users Chapter 4 Summary (continued) Two major operating systems for the personal computer are Microsoft Windows and the Mac OS X The basic types of user interface are command-line, menu-driven, and graphical System utilities keep the computer running efficiently Backup procedures keep data safe Troubleshooting is helpful for discovering errors 2006 Prentice-Hall, Inc.
