THE BIOS

• BIOS stands for Basic Input and Output System. It is sometimes called
  ROM BIOS because it is stored in a Read-Only Memory(ROM) chip on
  the mainboard. BIOS is the first program to run when you turn on your
  computer.
• BIOS performs the following functions:
  1. Initializing and testing hardware in your computer (a process called
      “POST”, for Power On Self Test).
  2. Loading and running your operating system.
  3. Helping your operating system and application programs to manage
      your PC hardware by means of a set of routines called BIOS Run-Time
     Service.
