The process of starting or restarting a computer system is known as booting. During booting, the computer's firmware initializes hardware components and loads the operating system from a secondary storage device, such as a hard drive or SSD, into the computer's memory (RAM). This allows the system to become operational and ready for user interaction. The boot process involves a series of steps, including a Power-On Self Test (POST) to check hardware functionality.
