    HOW TO START A COMPUTER?

                     Before working on the computer, we need to start it. This is called switching on
                     the computer. We can start a computer by following the given steps:

                                                      1  Switch on the power button.

                                                                                                    4  Switch on

                     A screen appears after switching on the computer. This screen is called the
                     desktop. We can see small pictures on the desktop. These small pictures are

                     called icons. At the bottom of the screen, you will find a horizontal bar, which
                     is known as the Taskbar. The Taskbar contains the Start menu and a set of

                     fixed icons. It also shows the running programs as icons when minimized.

                                                                                                            Desktop
