Dans l'invention, avec le démarrage d'un dispositif de traitement d'informations (4), un système d'exploitation générique est lu dans une mémoire de travail (4002), et ainsi, une unité centrale (400) est définie sur un environnement opérationnel de mode générique de sorte qu'un AP générique est utilisable à tout moment, tandis qu'au moyen d'une unité centrale de gestion (14) qui commence ultérieurement à fonctionner, un état d'attente d'un système d'exploitation spécifique est stocké dans une mémoire de stockage (40042). Lors de la sélection d'un AP spécifique, sans avoir besoin d'activer le BIOS, un système d'exploitation spécifique qui est en attente est déployé rapidement dans la mémoire de travail (4002).
