Microsoft developed the Windows
operating system in the mid-1980s. Over the years, it has released many versions, with the most notable recent ones being Windows 10 (released in 2015), Windows 8 (2012), Windows 7 (2009), and Windows Vista (2007). different operating systems
Mac OS is a line of operating systems
created by Apple. It comes preloaded on all new Macintosh computers, or Macs. All of the recent versions are known as OS X (pronounced O-S Ten), and the specific versions include El Capitan (released in 2015), Yosemite (2014), Mavericks (2013) Mountain Lion (2012), and Lion (2011). different operating systems
Linux is a family of open-source operating
systems, meaning anyone around the world can modify and distribute it. This is in contrast to proprietary software like Windows, which can only be modified by the company that owns it. Some advantages of Linux include its free availability and the wide variety of distributions —or versions—you can choose from, allowing for greater customization and flexibility. different operating systems
Computers can only process and interpret
electronic data, which is known as Machine Language. Machine Language consists of binary digits, or bits, that serve as the basic code used to instruct or command the computer. This is where Operating Systems come in—they convert our instructions and commands into the electronic format that the computer understands what is booting?
In computing, booting, also
known as initial program load (IPL), is the process of starting a computer as initiated via hardware such as a physical button on the computer or by a software command. steps in booting? 1. When the user powers on the computer, the CPU (Central Processing Unit) activates the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System).
2. The first program that runs is POST
(Power-On Self-Test). Using the CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor) memory, it checks the computer’s hardware to ensure everything is functioning properly. steps in booting? 3. The MBR (Master Boot Record) on the boot drive, using the 'bootstrap loader' provided by the manufacturer’s firmware. It then loads the Operating System from the boot drive into the RAM (Random Access Memory) INstalling your operating system

Step 1: Create a Windows 11
Installation USB Go to Microsoft’s official website, download the Windows 11 installation media, and follow the prompts to create a bootable USB drive. This ensures you have the necessary installation files on the USB drive, which is needed to boot your PC and install Windows 11. steps in INstalling your operating system
Step 2: Insert the USB drive into an
available USB port on your new PC. This allows your PC to recognize the bootable USB drive, which will be used to initiate the installation process when you power on the system steps in INstalling your operating system
Step 3: Restart your PC and enter the
BIOS/UEFI settings (typically by pressing a specific key, such as F2, F12, Delete, or Esc, during startup). Once in the BIOS/UEFI, select the USB drive as the primary boot device. By booting from the USB drive, you're instructing your PC to run the installation program directly from the USB drive, rather than the regular hard drive. steps in INstalling your operating system
Step 4: Once your PC boots from the USB
drive, the Windows 11 Setup screen will appear. Click "Install Now" to begin the installation process. This step launches the installation program, where you'll follow the on-screen instructions. Be sure to have your Windows 11 product key ready in case you're prompted for it. steps in INstalling your operating system
Step 5: Complete the installation by
following the onscreen instructions. You’ll be asked to select your language, time zone, and keyboard layout, as well as choose where to install Windows 11. These prompts help customize the installation to your preferences. During this step, you’ll also partition your hard drive and set up your primary Windows account.
