Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a processor that executes an instruction stored in a fixed address area in a storage part; the storage part that stores a first startup program and a second startup program, contents of the second startup program being different at least partially from those of the first startup program; and an address conversion part that, when the processor carries out a predetermined startup different from an ordinary startup that is carried out at a time of starting power supply to the information processing apparatus, converts an address included in a read instruction issued by the processor indicating a storage area that stores the first startup program into an address indicating an other storage area that stores the second startup program, and sends the converted address to the storage part.
