At boot-up, the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) performs a series of tasks known as the Power-On Self-Test (POST) to check the hardware components of the computer, such as RAM, CPU, and storage devices. After verifying that essential hardware is functioning correctly, it initializes the hardware and searches for a bootable device, such as a hard drive or USB drive, containing the operating system. Once a bootable device is found, the BIOS loads the bootloader from that device into memory, transferring control to the operating system for further startup processes.

What is the purpose of the boot loader during the boot up process?
The purpose of a boot loader is to load an operating system from a storage device, set up a minimal environment in which the OS can run, and run the operating system's startup procedure.

What are the steps in a booting process?
It depends on what you have set-up for the computer to boot-up. A normal setting is for it to boot from the hardrive or if you are on Linux the setting normally is; BOOT-UP LINUX *-Disk Drive *-USB Ports(sometimes, but not normally) *-Hard Drive *-Floppy Disk

Go to msconfig in the run command and deselect it
What does BIOS provide for the computers?
BIOS provides the boot-up process for a computer. It is part of ROM.
What is the purpose of the master boot record on a hard drive?
The master boot record is the very first piece of code executed from the hard drive. The MBR is expected to simply discover the active partition on the drive, and then load and run its boot sector, but other MBRs exist, for example LILO, which loads a Linux kernel directly, and Smart Boot Manager, which allows the user to choose which partition to boot.
Why is the process of starting up the computer called booting?
The word "boot" or "booting" comes from the concept of bootstrapping, or pulling oneself up by the bootstraps. Before PC's, computer operators would run a program called the bootstrap loader. This loader did the initialization that is now automatic. The process became known as bootstrapping and later booting.
