The performance of this issue is based on the above-mentioned developments (4) electronic devices and their role as manned green. The following detailed description of the present invention is a block diagram of a mobile electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to the figure, the mobile electronic device 100 includes a storage device 110, a selection switch 120, a boot module 13A, and a central processing unit 14A. In this embodiment, the mobile electronic device 1 is, for example, an Ultra Mobile PC (UMPC). The storage device 110 stores a first operating system and a second operating system. Among them, the first operating system is a general operating system that can support multiple functions, such as a Windows operating system (such as Windows XP or Windows Vista operating system, etc.) developed by Microsoft Corporation. The second operating system is a dedicated operating system that only supports a specific function. In this embodiment, the scope of the specific function is not limited. For example, the second operating system may be an operating system that only supports the Global Positioning System (GPS) function, or may only support portable multimedia playback. Operating system of the Portable Media Player (PMP) function. In contrast, the first operating system has a wide range of functions, but it takes a relatively long boot time to load all the function modules. The second operating system can only support one specific function, but the content is streamlined. And there are fewer functions to load, so the loading action can be done very quickly. The selection switch 120 is, for example, a switching device provided on the outer casing of the mobile electronic device 100. In this embodiment, the selection switch 120 may be a 9 200925995 〇 99 twf.doc/n two-stage switch, and the first segment and the second segment correspond to the first operating system and the second operating system, respectively. Therefore, the user can select whether to load the first operating system or the second operating system by adjusting the selection switch 120 before starting the power of the mobile electronic device 100. The boot module 130, which is simultaneously connected to the storage device 110 and the selection switch 12A, is used to directly select the user through the selection switch 丨2〇 after the user presses the power switch of the mobile electronic device 1(). The operating system is loaded into the mobile electronic device 100. The boot module 130 is, for example, a basic input/output system (Basic InpUt/〇utpUt System, BI〇s). It is to be noted that in the mobile electronic device 100 described in this embodiment, there is only one central processing unit 14A. Through the central processing unit 14, various functions provided by the first operating system or the second operating system loaded by the booting module 130 can be executed. In order to explain in more detail the detailed steps of loading the operating system into the mobile electronic device 100, another embodiment will be further described below. 2 is a flow chart of a method of loading an operating system in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to both FIG. 2 and FIG. 2, in the present embodiment, it is assumed that a Windows Vista operating system and a dedicated operating system supporting only the Gps function are stored in the storage device 11A of the mobile electronic device 1A. Before the power of the mobile electronic device 100 is turned on, first, as shown in step 21A, a selection operation between the Windows Vista operating system and the dedicated job system of the Gps function is performed. For example, the user can select the operating system by adjusting the selection switch 120. After the selection is completed, as shown in step 220, the mobile electronic device 200925995 399twf.doc/n is turned on. At this time, the boot module 13 in the mobile electronic device 1 is ready to start the hardware test and initialization. Then, as in step 230, the power-on module 13 〇 determines whether the user selects a windows vista operating system or a GPS-only dedicated operating system according to the loop signal generated by the selection switch 12 。. If the loop signal generated by the selection switch 120 corresponds to the Windows Vista operating system, then as shown in step 24, the boot module ^I30 will be loaded into the Windows Vista operating system during the boot process, and by the central processing unit. 140 performs the functions provided by the Windows Vista operating system. That is, once the boot-up action is completed, the user can use all the functions supported by the wind〇ws Vista operating system on the mobile electronic device 100. On the other hand, if the loop signal generated by the selection switch 120 is a dedicated operating system corresponding to the GPS function, the boot module 130 directly loads the dedicated operating system of the GPS function to the mobile electronic device 1 as shown in step 25A. 〇〇' and an operation screen of the Gps® function is displayed on the display of the mobile electronic device 100. In other words, if the user selects a GPS-specific dedicated operating system before the mobile electronic device 100 is turned on, the user can directly use the Gps function after the mobile electronic device is turned on. In such a case, the mobile electronic device 1 is like a GPS navigation system to the user. When the user needs to use the GPS function% in the line shop, it is only necessary to select the special operation system for loading the GPS function before the mobile electronic device is turned on, and it is no longer necessary to wait for the loading of other power month b modules, and You can quickly enter the operation of the GPS function 6〇99twf.doc/n 200925995 after power-on, which improves the convenience of use. In another embodiment, it is assumed that a Windows Vista operating system and a dedicated operating system that only supports the PMP function are stored in the storage device 110. As shown in FIG. 3, the user can still select the operating system to be loaded before the mobile electronic device 100 is turned on, thereby increasing the startup speed. Since the steps shown in FIG. 3 are identical or similar to the steps in FIG. 2, they are not described herein again. However, in short, the power-on module 13 载入 loads the operating system corresponding to the loop signal into the mobile electronic device 100 directly during the power-on process according to the loop signal generated by the selection of the switch I20. If the user selects a dedicated operating system for the PMP function to be loaded in advance, once the mobile electronic device 100 is activated, the user can directly view the operation screen of the PMP function on the mobile electronic device 100 and can immediately use the action. The electronic device 100 plays the multimedia file. It is worth mentioning that in another embodiment, the storage device 110 stores, for example, a Windows Vista operating system, a GPS-specific dedicated work system, and a PMP-enabled dedicated operating system, and the selection switch 12 is, for example, a three-segment. Switch. Therefore, the user can select three operating systems through the three-stage switch before starting the mobile electronic device 100. When the user selects to load the Windows Vista operating system, after the mobile electronic device 100 is turned on, the functions of the personal electric brain can be executed; when the user selects the dedicated operating system to be loaded with the GPS function' The mobile electronic device 100 becomes a GPS navigation system that can directly and quickly provide various navigation information. When the user selects a dedicated operating system for the 疋PMP function to be loaded, the mobile electronic device 1 becomes 12 099 twf.
