All rights reserved. Setup vs. BIOS vs. CMOS Setup is a program that controls settings in the BIOS, which are stored on a device manufactured with CMOS technology. 19 Setup lets you control how your computer is configured. 20 When you get a new computer, it is a good idea to write down the configuration information. 21 The BIOS settings determine the configuration of your system. 22 This information is saved in a special memory called CMOS. 23 CMOS has its own battery so that the configuration information will not be lost when the computer is turned off or during a power failure. 24 BIOS Suppliers • Award • American Megatrends (AMI) • Phoenix 25 ROM PCI/ISA BIOS (2A69KS2C) CMOS SETUP UTILITY AWARD SOFTWARE, INC.

A program cannot be loaded into memory unless a program has already been loaded into memory. 37 Cold Boot vs. Warm Boot 38 Cold Boot OR RESET POWER 39 During Cold Boot: • All circuits are reset. • The computer performs the Power On Self Test (POST) … • and then loads the Disk Operating System. 40 Warm Boot Ctrl Alt Del 41 During Warm Boot: • The computer skips the Power On Self Test (POST) … • and immediately reloads the OS. 42 The boot process From: To: C:\> POWER ON 43 The Boot Process • Activate the Power On Self Test (POST) • Load the OS 44 The Power-On Self Test (POST) • Checks the CPU. • Checks the system bus. • Tests video memory. • Tests system RAM. • Tests the keyboard. • Checks disk drives. • Verifies configuration. • Incorporates expansion BIOS. • Configures Plug and Play Devices. 45 The CPU checks itself 46 The CPU checks the system bus 47 The CPU checks video memory Video Board Motherboard 48 The CPU checks system RAM 49 The CPU tests the keyboard 50 The CPU checks the disk drives 51 The CPU verifies the configuration CMOS 52 The CPU incorporates expansion BIOS’ RAM Expansion Card 53 The CPU configures PnP devices Video Card Sound Card MODEM 54 Upon completion of the POST, the CPU reports the results. 55 The Boot Process • Activate the Power On Self Test (POST) • Load the OS 56 Memory Types and History Copyright © 2002 Heathkit Company, Inc.
