List four operating systems that allow only 32 bit drivers?
1. windows 95 98 NT and 9.x windows 95 was the first to allow 32 bit drivers
What part of software allow the operating system to communicate with peripheral devices?
The device drivers allow the operating system to communicate with peripheral devices.
What are common features of operating systems?
Most operating systems have an on off function, and allow different users to use the computer. Some have hibernation and lock functions.
Operating system enables two or more users to run programs simultaneously?
Modern operating systems allow for multiple processes and programs to be run simultaneously. Additionally the use of VMware can allow for multiple operating systems to be running at the same time. Modern operating systems include the desktop clients of Windows, MacOS, and Linux, while major mobile platforms independent of these are Blackberry and Android.
What is a computer operating systems?
An operating system is software or a set of software responsible for managing processes, resources, and hardware. Though some people also erroneously believe the operating system is also there to allow the user to use the computer, this is inaccurate, as that is the function of the shell, which not all operating systems are actually required to have (A lot of embedded systems don't interact with users at all but perform another task indirectly for users.)

Why is it that today's operating systems don't address peripheral devices directly?
Installable device drivers allow the OS to support new devices without updating the OS.
What part of software allow the operating system to communicate with peripheral devices?
The device drivers allow the operating system to communicate with peripheral devices.
What are print drivers and what do they do?
Print drivers are code segments that allow the operating system to communicate with the printer attached to the computer.

What are PC drivers?
drivers are similar to patches. you have probably heard of SP2 for windows. They are simply upgrades needed for compatibility, and in some cases are use to slighty improve the product. Overall they are a must. You can find the most up to date drivers online, as opposed to the disk sent with your product Drivers are small programs that allow devices to run on your operating system, They are not PATCHES.
What is the purpose of business drivers?
The purpose of business drivers is to allow the company to ensure someone for the sole purpose of operating a vehicle for their business. This protects the company from potential litigation risks.
Why is it not necessary to initials a PIC port for input?
No such port. There is PCI, and you don't have to do anything, the operating system has generic drivers to allow this to run. Now when you put in a card into this slot, you will need to install the drivers for this card and this will allow the card to work at optimum speed.
What do printer drivers do?
Printer drivers - are small programs that enable the operating software (eg Windows) to recognise that the printer is attached to the computer. They literally allow the printer and computer to 'talk' to each other.
What are the types of OS?
Operating systems can be categorized into several types, including: Batch Operating Systems - These process jobs in batches without user interaction. Time-Sharing Operating Systems - Allow multiple users to interact with the computer simultaneously by sharing time. Distributed Operating Systems - Manage a group of independent computers and present them as a single coherent system. Embedded Operating Systems - Designed for specific hardware with limited resources, commonly used in devices like appliances and cars.
What are the four different types of operation system?
The four main types of operating systems are: Batch Operating Systems: These execute jobs in batches without user interaction, optimizing CPU usage. Time-Sharing Operating Systems: These allow multiple users to interact with the system simultaneously by rapidly switching between tasks. Distributed Operating Systems: These manage a group of independent computers and present them as a single coherent system to users. Real-Time Operating Systems: These are designed to process data as it comes in, ensuring timely and predictable response to external events.
