    Abstract: The present information relates to an information processing apparatus and method, a recording medium, and a program which are capable of easily and continuously writing programs to a plurality of storage blocks which are controlled by different CPUs. A first CPU 11 of an image display apparatus 1 writes a subject file from a semiconductor memory 2 to a specified device, a first flash ROM 12 or a first EEPROM 14. Alternatively, the first CPU 11 controls a second CPU 31 to write a subject file to a specified device, a second flash memory ROM 32 or a second EEPROM 34. While executing normal processing, the first CPU 11 confirms whether a subject file to be installed is ready or not. If the subject file is found to be ready, the first CPU 11 starts installing the subject file. The present invention is applicable to personal computers.
