Abstract
An operation system module provided by the present invention comprises an interface slot unit, an interface card and a memory card. The interface slot is disposed on a circuit board. In addition, the interface card can be inserted into the interface slot unit. Wherein, the interface card has a memory card slot, so that the memory card can be inserted into the memory card slot. In particularly, an operation system is installed into the memory card, so as to control a host apparatus working.
