Information Sheet 1.2-1
Structure of Operating Systems
Learning Objectives:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able to:
1.describe structures of some operating systems.
2. give examples of some other operating systems.
Introduction :
Structure of an operating system.
Internal structure of operating systems can differ. Structures of operating systems tend to differ depending on
the arrangement of files, how hardware and applications are installed and controlled and how the user
interacts with the system. When it comes to Macintosh, Windows, Linux, and other operating systems, their
performance depends on it structure, as different operating systems were built with different concepts and
uses in mind.
MS DOS has the simplest structure. It was written with the aim of providing more functionality in less space. It
is not separated into modules. Though MS-DOS does have some structure, the interface of MS-DOS and the
levels of functionality are not clearly separated. MS-DOS follows a layered approach. MS-DOS operating
systems are divided into a number of layers; build one on top of the other. The bottom layer, layer 0, contains
hardware and the highest layer is known as the user interface. Layers are chosen with modularity so that each
utilizes services and operations of only the immediate lower-level.
UNIX operating systems has limited structuring. It has two separate parts as System programs & The Kernel.
The UNIX operating system consists of everything below the system interface and above the physical layer
(hardware). It provides a large number of functions for one level like file system, CPU scheduling, memory
management and other operating system functions.
The modern operating systems implement kernel modules. This is structured using object-oriented
approaches. Each core component is separate and talks to each other over known interfaces. Each core
component is loadable as and when needed within the kernel. Overall it is similar to the layered architecture
but with more flexibility.
Virtual machines are structured by taking the layered approach to the most logical conclusion. Virtual
machines treat hardware's and the kernel of the operating system as though all are hardware. Virtual machines
provide interfaces matching the underlying hardware. Operating systems generates the vision of multiple
processes, all executing on its very own processor with its very own virtual memory. It is structured in a
manner that the resources of the physical computer are shared to make the virtual machine. CPU scheduling
creates the idea that users have their own processor. A normal user time -sharing terminal serves as the
virtual machine operator's console.
These are some basic structures of operating systems. One can identify ways in which they are alike and differ
according to the purpose it was built to serve. The architectures differ with technological advances, outdating
techniques frequently.

PCs with multiple processors (CPUs):
Commercial servers, workstations, and other high-end PCs may have more than one physical
processor. Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, and Ultimate allow for two physical processors, providing
the best performance on these computers. Windows 7 Starter, Home Basic, and Home Premium will
recognize only one physical processor.
* Prior versions of Windows, including Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, have limited support when running
on new processors and chipsets from manufacturers like Intel, AMD, NVidia, and Qualcomm. A device may
not be able to run prior versions of Windows if the device hardware is incompatible, lacking current
drivers, or otherwise outside of the Original Equipment Manufacturer’s (“OEM”) support period.
Windows 10 system requirements :
 Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster

Creating a Bootable Device
LEARNING CONTENT:

1. Convert a flash drive into a bootable flash drive.
Introduction :
How to create a bootable Windows USB using Rufus
A few years ago, creating a bootable USB drive used to be a somewhat daunting exercise for many
people as it meant using the command prompt to access DiskPart which is a great little command-line
utility. Luckily for us, there are now far simpler ways of achieving this, by using free software like
Rufus to do the hard work instead. Please note though that Rufus is a Windows only utility.
In this tutorial we will be creating a bootable Windows 7 Ultimate x64 USB.
Things you will need:
 Your bootable ISO of choice. I will be using a Windows 7 Ultimate x64 ISO (If you have a
Windows 7 disk, then you can create your own bootable ISO easily using ImgBurn)
 Latest version of Rufus (I am using version 2.2)
 A spare USB stick (The size of the USB required will vary depending on the size of the ISO you
are using. For this exercise I need an 8GB USB)
Once you have the required items, you can start by opening up Rufus. Don’t worry about any of the
settings here as Rufus will automatically do this for you depending on the type of ISO you are using.

By default, it will appear to have many of the options blank until you connect your USB. Once you

Note, if you are using a USB stick that is too small, like using a 4GB USB for an ISO that is larger
than 4GB you will get the following error:
If your USB is the correct size then you will get a standard warning telling you that any data/partitions
that was on the USB before starting the process will be permanently deleted
Click OK, to start.
How long the process will take to complete will depend on the specs of your computer, the USB
(read/write speeds) and the size of the ISO you are using.

3. Save configuration changes.
All About Boot Priority
To boot from a CD, DVD or USB device, make sure that the device has boot sequence priority over
the hard drive.
BIOS Boot
BIOS (Basic Input Output Subsystem) is a programmable chip that controls how information is
passed to various devices in the computer system. A typical method to access the BIOS settings
screen is to press ESC, F1, F2, F8 or F10 during the boot sequence.
BIOS settings allow you to run a boot sequence from a floppy drive, a hard drive, a CD-ROM drive or
an external device. You may configure the order that your computer searches these physical devices
for the boot sequence.
The first device in the order list has the first boot priority. For example, to boot from a CD-ROM drive
instead of a hard drive, place the CD-ROM drive ahead of the hard drive in priority.
Before you set boot priority for a USB device, plug the device into a USB port.

To specify the boot sequence:
1. Start the computer and press ESC, F1, F2, F8 or F10 during the initial startup screen. Depending on
the BIOS manufacturer, a menu may appear.
2. Choose to enter BIOS setup. The BIOS setup utility page appears.
3. Use the arrow keys to select the BOOT tab. System devices appear in order of priority.
4. To give a CD or DVD drive boot sequence priority over the hard drive, move it to the first position in
the list.
5. To give a USB device boot sequence priority over the hard drive, do the following:
o Move the hard drive device to the top of the boot sequence list.
o Expand the hard drive device to display all hard drives.
o Move the USB device to the top of the list of hard drives.
6. Save and exit the BIOS setup utility.
7. The computer will restart with the changed settings.
Boot Priority Options
Some computer manufacturers allow you to select the device that contains the boot sequence from a
special device selection menu. The example below uses a Dell system board.
To set boot priority using a device selection menu:
1. When the computer starts to boot up, after the manufacturer's ID screen, press F12 several times.
The device selection menu appears.
2. Use the up and down arrows to select CD-ROM or an USB Flash Drive.

Installing Drivers
How to Install Drivers by Camilla Mo
As you know, a driver is software that a device uses to work with your PC. When your device isn’t
working properly, you can check if the driver is installed correctly. Faulty driver could always be the
cause. To fix the problem, you need to update the driver. For some devices, Windows can update the
driver automatically. For some devices especially external devices, you need to install the updated
drivers yourself, then you need to download the driver manually.
Download the driver manually
To download new drivers, go to PC manufacturer’s website or device manufacturer’s website. Driver

updates are often available in the Support section of their website. If you are using a
branded computer, it is recommended that you go to the PC manufacturer’s website to check for the
latest driver first, as they may customize the driver. You are required to use the PC model and
the operating system that you are using to download the correct driver. Usually, the PC model can be
found on the machine.. If you need to download the driver from device manufacturer, then you are
required to know the device model.
How to install the driver
The downloaded driver file will be an executable file (File name ends in “.exe”.) or a zip file (File name
ends in “.zip”.).
For executable file, to install the driver, you just need to double-click on the file and follow the on-
screen instructions.
For zip file, you need to unzip it and find the executable file in the archive. If you cannot find an
executable file, you need to install the driver step by step using the “.inf” file. Following steps are for
your reference how to install the driver in this way.
1. Go to Device Manager.
2. Find the device that need to install a driver. (Here let’s take video card for example.)
3. Right-click on the device and select Update Driver Software…
