How was the first os loaded onto the computer?

By first loading a small bootstrap program. The bootstrap program then loaded the OS.It is still done this way, except the bootstrap programon most modern computers is preloaded on ROM so it needs no special action on the part of the operator/user to load it as was needed on the early computers.Some early computers used a 2 stage bootstrap to simplify thing for the operator/user: the small bootstrap program loaded a larger more powerful bootstrap program, which then loaded the OS. This is not necessary with the bootstrap program in ROM, the large bootstrap program would be the one in ROM.


What large program controls how the CPU communicates with other hardware components?

the large program that contorls how the CPU communicates with other hard ware is what?


The term booting up your computer is booting up is derived from?

The computer term bootstrap began as a metaphor in the 1950s. In computers, pressing a bootstrap button caused a hardwired program to read a bootstrap program from an input unit and then execute the bootstrap program which read more program instructions and became a self-sustaining process that proceeded without external help from manually entered instructions. As a computing term, bootstrap has been used since at least 1958 - now usually abbreviated to boot.


What would the bootstrap program need to do?

The bootstrap program should automatically load the operating system after a power outage or reset. The operating system would then load the remaining software.


Why is the name bootstrap given to bootstrap circuit?

The term bootstrap comes from the process of initializing the circuit or computer from a power off-on transition. The term is akin to picking one's self up by one's boot straps.In an ordinary logic circuit, this entails making sure that the circuit starts off in the right state following power on, usually by having a resistor charge a capacitor from VCC, forming a RESET signal. Often, there is a diode across that resistor, so that short power off-on sequences force a reset.Taking this further, into the computer, the RESET signal causes the processor to execute a bootstrap program out of ROM that initializes everything and loads the rest of the program from disk. (Some imbedded controllers do not have disks, but the principle is the same.)


The large program that controls the CPU communicates with other hardware components is the?

Is bootstrap a mobile app?

Although a bootstrap program helps the computer to run a series of commands during the loading of the operating system, in today' digital ecosystem it is one of the popular open source toolkits. The program provides a framework to develop mobile first responsive front-end components on the web or mobile apps by using HTML, CSS and JavaScript.


What is the order in which the bootstrap program searches the OS boot up file?

The answer is CMOS.


What kind of program is for sale at the Bootstrap World Org website?

Who loads bootstrap program in memory and when?

When the computer start all the essential files, to start the operating system load from disk to the memory.Basically the bootstrap program is loaded into the read only memory(ROM) which enables while the computer start.


When a computer is first started several things happen what are they in order?

This actually varies dramatically both in steps and order of those steps from one computer to another, so no correct answer can be provided to your question that applies to all computers. On dedicated embedded computers where the entire program is resident in ROM only one step is required: the hardware sends a reset pulse to the CPU which then begins running the program from the beginning. On other computers the machine must go through several different bootstrap phases, each configuring different parts of the hardware and/or configuring tables in memory that the next bootstrap phase will need. Usually the final bootstrap phase loads and starts the Operating System (if there is one, if not a dedicated application program will be loaded instead). Many early computers required significant manual setup by the computer operator before the computer could be started (e.g. toggling/setting switches, loading paper or magnetic tapes containing the bootstrap programs) and once started the operator might also have to perform additional actions when the computer needed the next bootstrap phase, etc.
