Starting up the Computer and turning the computer off
The computer is like any other machine, you have to start it to be able to use it fully, for exam it is like a fan, when you put the on or green button, current is allowed to flow into the machine and its working devices causing it to be able to operate. So this also applies to the computer system, as it uses currents to runs its machines and to be able to give us our day to day needs and also to be able to operate the way that it was meant to be, obey all its commands both built in and ordered. There is always a small but the biggest buttons on the Cpu tower of the computer. In some systems it could be a light blue and in some it could be white in color, but it is normally noticed by its size, it is normally the biggest button on the cpu, and by slightly pushing this once you can put the computer system on and working, you might notice a small noise or sometimes a small cracking noise from the cpu or from the monitor, these are all very normal and current {electrical energy} is converted into sound in mechanical systems like the computer system, the 1st thing that happens after you slightly press the start button is that some lights will be sharply seen in the output devices of the computer system, like the keyboard and the mouse, this is totally normal as this is to acknowledge that the attached devices to the computer cpu tower has current, then the monitor comes to live, .normally the color you would see come up in the monitor will be a light blue, then you will see the word windows,
This is that the computer is loading itself and its data, and then the light blue comes back on, then the icons begin to appear little time is normally needed for the computer to become fully operational, I would personally suggest 3 to 4 minutes, this actually differs depending on the model of the windows that the computer is using windows 97 and windows 98 might take much more time, but the windows 2000 and above will definitely be faster than that time. It might be a little bit tricky for a new user to the computer system to really know when the computer is ready for operation, but a little thing to note is that there will be no small icons appearing on the monitor screen anymore, on the bottom left side of the monitor the small icons must have stop appearing, and the arrow has no time glass beside it anymore, when the computer monitor has all these characteristics it goes a long way to show that the computer is fully on.
The process of turning of the computer system is in a more easy way, normally you will have to begin by closing all the applications that you have operating on the computer, by this I mean that you should close all the windows and internet explorers and commands that you were using on the system as this will enable it to shut down correctly, then you left click with your mouse on the käynnista {start} which will then open a scroll with
Sammuta...this means turn off
Suorita
Ohje
Esti-with an arrow {this means that on this command that there are more commands inside the esti [search] command}
Tiedosto-with an arrow
Ohjelmat-with an arrow
As on this note you would love to turn off the computer system, you click sammuta, there will come out a small box with the command of sammuta {turn off} and others like
käynnistä uudelleen and
määritä tietokone välmistilloa
With still the intent of turning of the computer system, you click on the sammuta command, this automatically orders the computer to begin to shut down, and it begins to shut itself down, it normally takes as little as 3 to 4 minutes, and at that the monitor goes off and blank more like black in color, and the all the lights where in the output devices of the computer are no longer there, and there is no more noise coming from the system, at that point the computer has completely off itself
