An information processing apparatus includes a CPU-A which starts a first OS stored in a DRAM-A, a CPU-B which starts a second OS stored in a non-volatile memory, and an HDD which stores a first program executed on the first OS and a second program executed on the second OS, in which CPU-A loads the second program from the HDD into DRAM-A when starting the first OS, and CPU-B makes the second OS execute the second program loaded in DRAM-A, once the first OS is started.
