Abstract

A computer system includes a processor for executing a program, a main memory for storing programs and data, a memory for storing a basic input/output system (BIOS), a first operating system, and at least one application program and a hard disk for storing a second operating system. When the computer system is turned on, the BIOS is loaded into the main memory to perform a system testing process, and then the computer system can choose to load the first operating system into the main memory so as to execute the application program stored in the memory or load the second operating system into the main memory so as to execute the second operating system. The first operating system is only capable of executing the application program stored in the memory.
