Computer Hardware And Software Pdf Computer Data Storage Compact Disc It establishes relationship between hardware and software. it has three major responsibilities: perform basic tasks including recognising input from keyboard, sending output to the display screen and keeping track of files and directories on the desk. it also controls peripheral devices. Once you understand what hardware is, then it’s a little easier to explain some of the other things that make up a computer, like software. software is not something you can hold in your hand; you can not actually see software; it’s virtual, not physical. An operating system links you to your programs (also called applications or software) and then links your programs to the computer's hardware. it controls how the computer does its most basic tasks, like storing files or talking to printers. Rather than presenting a long list of hardware specifications and how things work for it’s own sake, the focus will be on providing some of the information you will see when actually buying a machine.
