What is a software component that helps the operating system communicate with hardware devices?
Process
Service
Driver
Utility
The correct answer is a driver, which is a specialized program that facilitates communication between the operating system and hardware devices. Without drivers, the OS wouldn't be able to control hardware components effectively. Other options, such as utilities and services, play different roles in system management but do not directly serve as a bridge between the OS and hardware.
