| Definition: To boot a computer means to start, or restart, the computer system. Explanation: When you boot a computer, you cause
it to start executing instructions. Personal computers contain built-in instructions
that are kept on a ROM chip inside the computer that are automatically executed when the
computer is started. Booting the computer means it is getting its first
instructions. Learn More: Look up "Boot" in
