What’s In

From the previous lesson, you have learned how to make software installers. Can you
remember what devices are you able to create portable, bootable installers of applications
and operating systems? Below are pictures for you to identify.

What’s New

What if you are asked by your friend to help him choose and buy a laptop from the mall.
What things do you need to consider before you buy a laptop? Will you consider what
operating system does the laptop have and what version is it in? Do you know what
particular operating system is currently trending on the market? Can you site an example?
What about if the laptop chosen by your friend has no installed operating system? Do you
know how to install an OS to help your friend?

What is It
 Notes to the Teacher
Lesson requirements:

 Desktop computer/ Laptop

 Virtual Machine Simulator (Oracle VM Virtual Box)
 Bootable installers of Operating System in DVDs, or Flash drives.

Defining the System Software

System Software are programs that work behind the scene and without user intervention in
most situations perform other tasks such as loading and running a program, protecting computer
from viruses and hackers, performing regular checks, controlling hardware devices connected to
the computer such as the printer, sharing of memory resources, and coordinating connected
computers or networks.

What are the types of System Software

An Operating System or OS is the most important software that runs on a computer. It is a
program that is responsible for the coordination, management, and sharing of hardware
resources and tasks in the computer.

The Utility Software is a program that performs maintenance tasks for the computer’s
resources, such as clean up and organizing files and programs so they would load and work
faster.

An Anti-Virus Software is a program designed to detect, identify, and remove computer

viruses and other malicious software (malware) from the computer.

A Device Driver is a program that allows a particular hardware device to work and
communicate with the computer system.

The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS)is a program or code that helps the processor to
interact and control the other components in the computer like monitor, printer, scanner,
card reader, speakers, joystick, microphone, camera, disc drives, TV/video/sound card,
network cards, USB ports, and hard drives. It also does the boot process before the
operating system do its work.

Other system software are HD Sector Boot, Linker, Assembler, and Compiler.
The procedures in installing Windows 7 operating system:
1. Turn your computer on then press Del or F2 (depending on your
computer’s main board) to enter the system BIOS.
2. Go to Boot menu and choose Boot from CD/DVD as your priority 1.

3. Save the configuration and exit BIOS then reset your computer.

4. Insert Windows 7 DVD into your DVD drive then start up your
computer, Windows 7 will be loading files.
5. Select your language, time & currency format, keyboard or input method
and click Next.

6. Click Install now.

7. Check I accept the license terms and click Next.

8. Click Upgrade if you already have a previous Windows version or Custom
(advanced) if you don’t have a previous Windows version or want to install a
fresh copy of Windows 7.

9. (Skip this step if you chose Upgrade and have only one partition)
Select the drive where you want to install Windows 7 and click Next. If
you want to make any partitions, click Drive options (advanced), make the
partitions and then click Next.

10. It will now start installing Windows 7. The first step, (e.i. Copying
Windows files) was already done when you booted the Windows 7 DVD so
it will be completed instantly.
11. After completing the first step, it will expand (decompress) the files that it
has copied.

12. The third and fourth step will also complete instantly like the first step.
13. After that, it will automatically restart after 15 seconds and continue the
setup. You can also click Restart now to restart without any delays.

14. After restarting for the first time, it will continue the setup. This is the last
step so it will take the most time that the previous steps.

15. It will now automatically restart again and continue the setup. You can
click Restart now to restart without any delays.
16. Type your desired username in the text-box and click Next. It will
automatically fill up the computer name.

17. If you want to set a password, type it in the textboxes and click Next.

18. Type your product key in the textbox and click Next. You can also skip
this step and simply click next if you want to type the product key later.
Windows will run only for 30 days if you do that.
19. Select your desired option for Windows Updates.

20. Select your time, date, and click Next.

 21. If you are connected to any network, it will ask you to set the network’s
location. After that, you are done installing the OS.

What’s More

Now its time to try it on your own. Follow the procedures from the previous pages and
demonstrate how to install Microsoft Windows 7 OS on your computer. You may repeat
this exercise as many times as you want in order to master the procedure.
Remember that, constant correct practice makes what you do perfect.
Activity 1.2 Unscramble
Each item has words that are scrambled. Unscramble the mystery word through the help
of the clues in the statements.
1. You have to accept with these set of agreements in order to proceed with the
installation. LENICES TMERS
2. This is what you call your drive’s storage space where you can divide it
into segments. POTNARITI
3. During the installation process of the OS, what happens to the Windows
files after being copied. DRESCOMEPS
4. This feature helps the user to secure the computer from unwanted
access on their account. PORSADSW
