| | BIOS - definition of BIOS in Encyclopedia |
 | | In computing, the Basic Input-Output System or BIOS is computer interface code that locates and loads the operating system into RAM. | | | However, an improperly executed or aborted BIOS update can render the computer or device unusable. | | | In addition to the boot BIOS, which contains code to access fundamental hardware components such as the keyboard or the floppy drive, plug-in adapter cards such as SCSI or USB hard disk adapters or video boards may include their own BIOS, complementing or replacing the system BIOS code for the given component. |

| | Computer Post / Beep codes |
| | Below are IBM BIOS Beep codes that can occur. | | | If the computer fails the POST, the computer then returns a beep code indicating what is causing the computer not to pass the POST. | | | However, because of the wide variety of different computer manufacturers with this BIOS, the beep codes may vary. |

| | BIOS FAQ |
| | The BIOS is built-in software that determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a disk. | | | The BIOS is typically placed on a ROM chip that comes with the computer (it is often called a ROM BIOS). | | | BIOS developers then were asked to hide these pre-1.0 USB controllers, both from BIOS setup and, where possible on chipset programming level (as with Intel's PIIX3 south bridge chip), from the PCI bus as well. |

| | FSF - Campaign for Free BIOS |
| | Strictly speaking, there was a non-free program in that computer: the BIOS. | | | It was like the program that (we can suppose) exists in the computer that (we can suppose) runs your watch or your microwave oven: since you can't install software on it, it may as well be circuits, not a computer at all. | | | The ethical issues of free software arise because users obtain programs and install them in computers; they don't really apply to hidden embedded computers, or the BIOS burned in a ROM, or the microcode inside a processor chip, or the firmware that is wired into a processor in an I/O device. |

| | The BIOS is that dark, cavernous pathway to your computer's very soul that both beckons and repels the would-be performance seeker. | | | That's one of the reasons why the BIOS on any given machine may or may not have most of the settings I'm about to talk about. | | | Most PC users don't even know what a BIOS is, "where" it is, "how" you "see" it, and what you can do with it. |

| | BIOS Limitations |
| | Currently, computers are being shipped with a BIOS that implements Extended Int 13h or "Logical Block Addressing" (LBA), both of which are solutions to the 528-Mbyte limitation. | | | If you are in the CMOS attempting to set the cylinder value higher than 6322 (for a 3.27 Gbyte+ drive) and your computer hangs, your computer may have a BIOS with this limitation. | | | Some computers have a BIOS that may display invalid information in the CMOS. |
