Subsequently we will clarify what an operating system is and where it is to be used. Currently there is wide selection of operating systems, like Windows 98, Windows NT, Linux, etc. We also desire to work with Windows XP Home Edition operating system for knowing more about it. The operating system is also essential for the computer; without any operating system in the computer it would not work at all. The key function of any operating system which are been available is being an agent between the user and the substantial parts of the computer i.e. screen, keyboard, hard disk, printer, and so on which helps in making it much more easier for handling it. For instance, there is no need for the user to know it accurately in what part of the hard disk we have saved a particular text which we had created, the operating systems also takes care of it. If you are not aware about how to handle the mouse or the keyboard then well, we would suggest you to visit the Microsoft basic subject on this matter.
