English term or phrase: Boot up

"My computer won't boot up!"

Now I know the meaning in English:
To boot (as a verb; also "to boot up") a computer is to load an operating system into the computer's main memory or random access memory (RAM).

Any suggestion for an Arabic equivalent?

Many thanks everyone :)

when you or I boot up we are getting ready to run. Similary, when a computer boots up, it is getting ready to "run" the programs that are to be loaded into the RAM. It is indeed that simple unless of course you wish for a complicated technical explanation, in which case you are not looking for the Arabic equivalent.

This is what is most common.
you just google what I wrote and see if that's what used or not. If you want something more standard but not commonly used, you can say: تحميل نظام التشغيل
