What term refers to the process of launching an operating system (OS)?
-
Boot.
-
Ransom access memory (RAM).
-
Basic Input/Output System (BIOS).
-
Complimentary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS).
Correct Answer
A. Boot.Explanation
The term "boot" refers to the process of launching an operating system (OS). When a computer is powered on or restarted, the boot process begins, during which the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) is loaded and it initializes the hardware components. The BIOS then locates the OS stored on the computer's storage device and loads it into the RAM (Random Access Memory), allowing the OS to start running and providing the user with access to the computer's functionalities.Rate this question:

This type of memory is blank and instructions can be placed on it permanently
-
Read-only memory (ROM)
-
Random access memory (RAM)
-
Programmable read-only memory (PROM)
-
Complimentary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS)
Correct Answer
A. Programmable read-only memory (PROM)Explanation
PROM stands for Programmable Read-Only Memory. It is a type of memory that allows instructions to be permanently placed on it. Unlike RAM, which is volatile and can be written and rewritten, PROM is non-volatile and its contents cannot be changed once programmed. ROM, on the other hand, is not programmable and its contents are fixed during manufacturing. CMOS refers to the technology used in integrated circuits but is not a type of memory. Therefore, PROM is the correct answer for a memory type that can have instructions permanently placed on it.Rate this question:

What protocol is used to allow standard phone calls over the same data lines as electronic mail (E-mail) and web traffic?
-
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
-
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).
-
Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4).
-
Virtual Internet Protocol (VIP).
Correct Answer
A. Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).Explanation
VoIP is the correct answer because it is the protocol that allows standard phone calls to be transmitted over the same data lines as email and web traffic. VoIP converts analog voice signals into digital data packets and then transmits them over an IP network, such as the internet. This allows voice communication to be integrated with other forms of digital communication, making it possible to use the same data lines for multiple types of communication. TCP/IP and IPv4 are also protocols used in internet communication, but they do not specifically enable phone calls over the same data lines. Virtual Internet Protocol (VIP) is not a recognized protocol for this purpose.Rate this question:

What device recieves information from the internet, translates it into a radio signal, and sends it to the computers wireless adapter?
-
Network interface card (NIC).
-
Ethernet.
-
Router.
-
Wi-Fi (wireless fidelity).
Correct Answer
A. Router.Explanation
A router is a device that receives information from the internet and translates it into a radio signal, which is then sent to the computer's wireless adapter. The router acts as a bridge between the internet and the computer, allowing the computer to connect to the internet wirelessly. A network interface card (NIC) is a hardware component that allows a computer to connect to a network, but it does not perform the specific function of receiving information from the internet and translating it into a radio signal. Ethernet is a type of wired network connection, not a device. Wi-Fi (wireless fidelity) is a technology that allows devices to connect to a wireless network, but it is not a specific device itself. Therefore, the correct answer is the router.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. The hard disk test is visible on the monitor.Explanation
During a system cold boot, the power supply fan turns on to provide cooling for the system. An audible beep should be heard to indicate that the system has successfully completed the Power-On Self-Test (POST). The hard disk drive access light should come on to indicate that the system is accessing the hard disk. However, the hard disk test is not typically visible on the monitor during a cold boot. This test is usually performed during the POST and does not require any visual output on the monitor.Rate this question:
