Chapter 1 Understanding BIOS
1.1 BIOS
BIOS is the first program executed after power on. It is in the middle level of hardware and system. As a part of power on,
BIOS needs to initialize hardware devices including CPU and memory, save hardware settings for operating system
installation and loading.
BIOS will start to execute only after the power on button is pressed, and the execution right will be handed over to the
operating system after entering the system, so the life cycle of BIOS starts from power on and end when system boot is
completed.
