Abstract
A method for booting a computer device under a low temperature state is provided. A trigger signal is detected when a power button is pressed. A hard disk temperature of a hard disk is obtained via a temperature sensor to determine whether the hard disk temperature is less than a first predetermined temperature. If so, a heater is activated to heat the hard disk until the hard disk temperature is greater than the first predetermined temperature. If the hard disk temperature is greater than the first predetermined temperature, the heater is turned off and afterwards a voltage of a battery cell is checked if the voltage has reached a predetermined voltage. If the voltage of the battery cell has reached the predetermined voltage, a system component of a computer device is activated.
