Typical Events
*Disclaimer - this is from memory... :-) *
1) Power on. Power voltages tested good.
2) CPU Initializes, launching system ROM
3) System ROM starts, initiating POST (Power On Self Test)
4) POST runs, performing the following:
a) Testing BIOS chip and clock battery
b) Inventory hardware, such as video card, keyboard, mouse, etc.
c) start memory test
d) Looks for an OS to load
5) Loads the OS from the MBR (Master Boot Record) on drives as listed in the BIOS
6) Transfers control to the OS once it has found a valid boot loader
1. Computer goes through the POST.
2. BIOS locates the MBR (Master Boot Record)
3. MBR looks for a system partition
4. MBR passes passes control to NTDLDR
5. NTLDR reads BOOT.INI
6. BOOT.INI points to the boot menu or to the location of the OS.
This is a very very basic process. The POST alone is a much more drawn out explanation. But this should cover the basics of it.
Your computer goes down the list, starting at the top, trying to boot from each thing.
Typically the first is a floppy drive, the second a CD drive, then your main hard drive.

press the red button IT WORKS!
Booting is the act of switching on the computer and loading the operating system. This process is referred to as cold booting
The 7 steps of booting process in a computer are: Power On BIOS POST (Power-On Self-Test) Bootloader Execution Operating System Loading Kernel Initialization System Initialization User Login.
yes idownload
its called a "boot-up"
Dual-booting is the process of running more than one operating system on a computer.
Booting is the process of starting the computer from a power off condition. It has nothing to do with C++.
booting up POST, or Power On Self Test
the three methods are Booting with GRUB Booting with LILO and last but not least is Booting with CD's i.e ISO images
The process of starting a computer - from switching on, to being 'user ready' - is known as 'booting' or 'booting up'.
The first step in the booting process is POST (power-on self-test).
