| comp., MS | hardware abstraction layer | 硬件抽象层 (A thin layer of software provided by the hardware manufacturer that hides, or abstracts, hardware differences from higher layers of the operating system. By means of the filter provided by the HAL, different types of hardware look alike to the rest of the operating system. This enables the operating system to be portable from one hardware platform to another. The HAL also provides routines that enable a single device driver to support the same device on all platforms) |
| comp., MS | Hardware and Devices troubleshooter | 硬件和设备疑难解答 (A troubleshooter that helps find and fix problems about hardware and devices) |
| comp., MS | hardware branch | 硬件项 (The hardware archive root key in the registry that is a superset of the memory-resident hardware tree. Although the hardware tree contains information only about those devices currently detected and running in the system, the registry contains a complete list of all hardware ever installed on the particular computer. The hardware root key is \\HKEY-LOCAL-MACHINE\Hardware) |
| comp., MS | hardware button | 硬件按钮 (A button on a piece of hardware) |

| comp., MS | hardware interface | 硬件接口 (A card, plug, or other device that connects pieces of hardware with the computer so that information can be moved from place to place. For example, standardized interfaces such as RS-232-C standard and SCSI enable communications between computers and printers or disks) |
| comp., MS | hardware locking | 硬件锁定 (The act of forcing a computer into Hardware Locked Mode (HLM), where the computer is not under the control of the operating system; instead, the boot sequence is stopped at a firmware screen and the user is told to call customer support. Hardware Locked Mode (HLM) prevents the use of a computer in the case of tampering or default on the agreement with the customer) |
