Information Sheet 1.3-1 Operating System
Learning Objectives:
After readingthis INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able to:
1. Define Operating System.
2. Enumerate the functions/ features of an Operating System.
3. Identify utilities that will enhance (help/ extend Operating System capabilities.
This information sheet will co'ær the Operating System. Likewise, it's feature, function and type. In addition, the
enhancement of operating system using the utility software and related issues in Operating System.
When you work on a computer, you use a set of items on the screen. Taken together, these items are called user interface.
The most common types of user interfaces are graphical and command line.
2. RUNNING PROGRAMS
The Operating System act as an intermediary between programs and hardware. In a computer network, the operating
system also mediates between your computer and other devices on the network.
The Operating System uses interrupt requests (IRQs) to help the CPU coordinates.
Device driver controls the hardware. The programs are called drivers because they allow the operating system and other
programs to activate and use — that is, "driv€' the hardware device . Most of new software you will buy will work
with your printer, monitor, and other equipment without requiring you to install any special driver
Organized storage

LINUX (pronounced LINN-ux) is a family of open-source operating systems, which means they can
be modified and distributed by anyone around the world. This is different from proprietary
software like Windows, which can only be modified by the company that oums it (Microsoft). The
advantages of Linux are that it is free, and there are many different distributions—or
can choose from. Each distribution has a different look and feel, and the
most popular ones include Ubuntu, Mint, and Fedora.
Linux is named after Linus Torvalds, who created the Linux kernel in 1991. The kernel is
the computer code that is the central part of an operating system.

NETWORK OPERATING SYSTEM
Network Operating System runs on a server and provides server the capability to manage data, users, groups, security
applications, and other networking functions. The primary purpose of the network operating system is to allow shared file and
printer access among multiple computer in a network, typically a local area network (LAN), a private network or to other networks.
Example of network operating systems are Microsoft Windows 2003, Microsoft Windows Server 2008, Unix, Linux, Mac
OS X, Novell Netware, and BSD.
Advantages Disadvantages
Centralized servers are highly stable. 1 High cost of buying and runninga server
b. Security flaws — some software errors leave a door open for the system to be broken by unauthorized intruders may try to
use these gain illegal access to your system. Patching these flaws often will help keep your computer secure.
c. Sometimes errors in operating system will cause the computer not to work correctly with some peripheral devices such as
printers.
Utilities that enhance or extends the operating system's capabilities, or that simply offer new features not provided by the
operating system itself As a new operating system is imprmæd and updated, the functionality of popular utilities is included with
subsequent releases of the OS.
While it is difficult to give a definite list of utility software categories, the most common types that ordinaxy people use
are disk and file management. Internet security and OS customization tools.
To complicate matters further, there are many packaged utility suites that
combine two or more utilities into one bundle. The following are small
selections of popular utilities.
A few other things it does is it maintains a log of all incoming and outgoing connections along with the date and
time stamp, shows what connections were blocked and why, and of course the best part, prevents unknown people from
getting into your network from the internet (hackers, vandals, script kiddies!).
But make no mistake. A firewall is the LEAST you can do to secutt your network — that's right. A firewall is the
most basic thing to have in place when it comes to securing your computer or an entire network.
Since you have understood what is a firewall, let's on to understand the types of firewalls:

This information sheet will cover the presentation of Peripherals/Devices. The differences between them, the
specifications and functionality in relation to its usage.
WHAT IS PERIPHERALS/DEVICE?
A peripheral is a piece of computer hardware that is added to a computer in order to expand its abilities. The term
peripheral is used to describe those devices that are optional in nature, as opposed to hardware that is either demanded or always
required in principle. The main distinction among peripherals is the way they are connected to your computer. They can be
connected internally or externally.
BUSES — a subsystem that transfers data between computer components inside a computer or between computers. Unlike a point-
to-point connection, a bus can logically connect several peripherals over the same set of wires.
Each bus defines its set of connectors to physically plug devices, cards or cables together. There are two types of buses: internal and
external. Internal buses are connections to various internal components. External buses are connections to various external
components. There are differentkinds of slots that internal and external devices can connect to.
n.tTERNAL
TYPE OF SLOTS
There are many different kinds of internal buses, but only a handful of popúlar ones. Different computers come with
different kinds and number of slots.
cards, sound cards, modems, extra ports such as USB or serial, IV tuner
cards and disk controllers. Video cards have outgrown the capabilities of PCI
because of their higher bandwidth requirements.
B. PCMCIA (also referred to as PC Card) is the type of bus used for laptop
computers. PCMCIA was originally designed for computer memoiY expansion,
but the existence of a usable general standard for notebook peripherals led to
many kinds of devices being made available in this form. "Typical devices
include network cards, modems, and hard disks. PCMCIA
Expansion cards are inserted into an expansion slot on the computer's motherboard
and create an electronic link between the two with edge connectors so data can be
communicated across.
10. TV TUNER CARD— a card Which is inserted into a computer to allow a device
to receive television signals that would not otherwise be suited to picking them
up. Cards are usually either PCI, mini PCI or PCIs, or sometimes as an external
USB device. Most cards have an inbuilt processor to free up space from the
system's CPU and ease the pressure on the computer. Cards can be either
analog or digital depending on which type of television the user wishes to view,
and many hybrid tuners exist which are able to switch between the two types. High-end tuner cards often include a
special chip to encode and decode the data being transmitted, however smaller and cheaper cards are less TVtuner
Card Ce'tiolOeV.çOrn likely to have this capability due to the high power it
takes to run them.
11. VIDEO CAPTURE CARD is used to allow a computer to an analog video signal into
a digital video data form. Many TV tuner cards double up as video capture
cards, allowing the user to record 'IV transmissions as they are being broadcast
and viewed.
TYPES OF CONNECTION
1. USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a serial bus standard to interface devices, USB was designed to allow many peripherals to
be connected using a single standardized interface socket and to the plug-and-play capabilities by allowing devices to be
connected and disconnected without rebooting the computer. Other convenient features include providing power to low-

consumption devices without the need for an external power supply and allowing many No: 2
devices to be used without
requiring manufacturer specific, individual device drivers to be installed

speed communications and isochronous real-time data transfer, frequently used in a personal computer. Firewire has
replaced Parallel ports in many applications. It has been adopted as the High Definition AudioVideo Network Alliance
(HANA) standard connection interface for A/ V (audio/ visual) component communication and control. Almost all modern
digital camcorders have included this connection.
3. The PS/2 connector is used for connecting some keyboards and mice to a PC
compatible computer system. The keyboard and mouse interfaces are
electrically similar with the main difference being that open collector outputs are
required on both ends of the keyboard interface to allow bidirectional
communication. If a PS/2 mouse is connected to a PS/2 keyboard port, the mouse
may not be recognized by the computer depending on configuration.
DEVICES
2. NON-REMOVABLE STORAGE can be a hard drive that is connected externally. External hard drives come in many
shapes and sizes like flash drives do. An external hard drive is usually connected by USB but you can also have a
networked hard drive which will connect to your network which allows all computers on that network to access
that hard drive.
INPUT DEVICES — which are connected to computer and they are used to send the data to the computer internally, are known as
the input devices. Following are some important input devices
1. KEYBOARD
This is the main input device for desktop (old version uses PS2 and port, new version uses USB
cable and port) and laptop systems. It has keys for:
• text entry
• entering numbers
• opening up menus
Recent changes to improve the functionality of 'mice' include cordless mice, optical mice, scroll wheels and extra buttons.
Trackball
Works like an upside down mouse. Users move the ball Which in turn moves a cursor on the
screen. Date Document No: 2

Track pads are found on laptops. The track pad does the job of the mouse and lets you •
4. SCANNER
Used to capture or input pictures and text into computer systems. They work by shining a
light onto a page in the scanner. A detector picks up the levels of light reflected from the
page and these ale turned into digital numbers which are then processed by the
computer. Speciál Optical Recognition Programs (OCR) can be used to recognize text.
These programs turn pictures representing text on a page into a document which
can be processed by a word processor program.
S. CAMERAS
Cameras are used to capture moving and still images. With photo sharing web sites
and web sites specializing in video, for example Youftlbe, they are becoming
increasingly popular. Web Cams are increasingly used in communications with
other users.
1. PRINTERS
Computers were supposed to bring about the dream of a 'paperless office' This now looks very unlikely to happen because
paper has got some advantages over when looking at information.
Advantages of Paper
1. It is very portable. The information on a sheetof paperis easily passed around, and many people can look at the
information at the same time.
2. It is cheap. Initial costs of computers mean there is no comparison with the cost of using paper.
3. Not everyone has computer equipment to view information, or it may be difficult to use computers in some situations.
Paper copies, or hard copies, of information will always be needed. Printers (and plotters) are used to produce these hard
copies. The main different types of printer, and how they are compared against each other, are eöplained below.
a. Laser Printers— this type of printer is the main one used in schools, offices and industry
because it produces high-quality printouts very quickly, with good resolution.
How it works?
It uses a laser to make a negatiN.e electrical image of the page on a positively charged drum,
which then picks up positively charged toner. The drum rolls over the paper and the toner is heated to print on to the
page. The toner cartridge many copies before needing replaced keepingrunning costs down.
Laser printers are generally more expensive than inkjet printers, but their
running costs are lower.
b. Inkjet Printers — Basic models of this type of printer are cheap to buy, and let
you print in color. The quality of the best inl<et's can be very high and can be
used for photographs.
Inkjet printers spray special ink on the paper to form characters and graphics.
The cost of replacing ink cartridges can be high with this type of printer because they need replaced frequently.
They print quite quickly, but can be quite slow when printing graphics. They are slower than laser printers.
2. SPEAKERS— When outputting sounds the sound card reverses the process and changes binary data held in the
sound files into analogue signals that are used control the speakers attached to the computer. Speakers convert
analogue audio signals into the equivalent air vibrations in order to make audible
sound. A pair of speakers plugs into the computer's sound card.
3. SCREEN AND MONITORS Screens are the LCD most common of output devices.
They show what's going in the computer. There are really three main types.
Wired connection may require only connecting wire to computer and may
require adding

Learning Objective:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able to:
1. Define Device Driver.
This information sheet will cover the presentation of Device Drivers. It also presents on how to install, configure, update
and remove the device driver.
A driver (sometimes called a device driver) is software that enables a computer to work with a particular device. Although
a device might be installed on a computer, the computer's operating system cannot communicate with the device until the driver
for that device has been installed and configured. It is the software that tells the computer how to work with the device so that
device can perform its job.
There are drivers for nearly every type of computer device and peripheral including:
Usually, the computer's operating system works with the driver to make the device perform. Printers provide a good illustration
of how drivers are used. Printers built by different manufacturers have different features and function. It is impossible for computer
and operating-system manufacturers make driver available for each of their printer. Before your computer can send documents to a
printer, you must install, or load the for that printer so that you will be able to communicate with it.
Working with drivers encompasses a variety of tasks, including installation, configuring, updating and removal.
INSTALLING DRIVERS
Most popular network operating system use interactive graphical interfaces, or dialog boxes, that guide the installer
through the process. Microsoft Windows NT Server, for example , features a utility called the Control Panel. This employs dialog
boxes that lead the user through the process of installing a NIC driver. Figure below shows several of the dialog boxes that appear
during the installation of a NIC network driver on Windows NT.
Installing a MC on
Windows NT Server
CONFIGURING DRIVERS
UPDATING DRIVERS
Occasionally, a manufacturer will write additions or changes to a driver to improve a component's performance.
Manufacturers can send these drivers changes by mail to registered users, post them on an Internet bulletin board, or make them
available through a service such as The Microsoft Network (MSN), CompuServe, or the manufacturer's Internet site. The user can
download and then install the updated driver.
The process of updating drivers is similar to installing them, although you might need to remove the old driver first. Be
sure to look for any readme files that come with the software. The readme files will inform you of the correct procedure for
installation. Some drivers, especially those that have been downloaded from the Internet or a bulletin board, are in the form of
executable files. For these, double-click on the file name , and the executable file will perform the installation.
It is sometimes necessary to remove drivers, such as when the original driver conflicts with the newest If a piece of
equipment is being removed, remove its drivers at the same time, too, to ensure that no conflicts arise between the old drivers and
any new drivers that are installed.
The process of removing a driver is similar to that of installing a driver. Figure below shows the Adapters tab of the
Network Window in a Windows NT work session. In this window, you need only select the dftR2r and then click on the Remove
button.
Removing a driver
TRUE OR FALSE: Read and analyze the statement. lil a separate sheet provided, write T if it is True and F if it is False.

ESSAY
23. Why do you have to ground or discharge yourself before touching any parts of the computer?
When you are not quite sure of how to operate or use a new set of computer; aside from asking help from your superior
what should you do?
27. During Windows installation, there is a prompt to ensure that one's date, time and region are set. Why do you have
to this?
28. After you add a peripheral to your computer or change a preference, you are asked to reboot the computer. Why do
you think this is necessary?
5- D — Operating System
28. When you install or uninstall a program, it will register or unregister the usage of one or more .dll files.dll files are placed in the
Windows system32/syswow64 directory when installed, and they are common files for many applications. These files often are in
use at the time of uninstalling a program and, as such, Windows has a built-in system to check for unused (after uninstalling, no
other program will be using these files anymore) .dlls at shutdown. This will remove them when the applications that were using
them are terminated (basically the uninstaller-tells Windows to verify the files for deletion). When Windows has closed the program,
it will then delete any file that is no longer assigned to a program to clean up the computer.
29-30. Even if you only haœ a single hard drive, you can have multiple operating systems on that hard drive. By partitioning the
drive into several different partitions, you can have one partition for one operating system and another partition for another
operating system, splitting the drive between them.
