Abstract: A method for adjusting recording power is provided. The addresses of changing recording velocity and section pause points are set. Then, the recording power in the inner circle is tested with the lowest rate, and the recording power on each high rate area is estimated. A required record data is recorded. Afterwards, whether the recording of the required record data is completed is determined. If confirmed, the recording process is terminated; otherwise, whether the recording velocity needs to be changed is determined. If confirmed, the recording is paused to change the recording velocity, otherwise, the recording process continues. The recording of required record data continues according to the estimated recording power and the recording power is tested to obtain an optimum recording power. Next, the recording power is adjusted to the optimum recording power to continue recording the rest of required record data, so as to enhance the recording quality.

Thus the properties of heat resistance and heat dispersal can be improved and the process can be simplified.

Abstract: A method for initializing a computer system employs BIOS to set up a temporary storage area and a temporary setting control flag. When the user alters the configuration settings of the computer system, BIOS saves the new configuration settings into the temporary storage area as temporary configuration settings and sets the temporary setting control flag. When the computer system reboots, BIOS first unsets the temporary setting control flag and initializes the computer system according to the temporary configuration settings in the temporary storage area. If BIOS can successfully initialize the computer system with the temporary configuration settings, the CMOS RAM will be updated with the temporary configuration settings. If BIOS can not successfully initialize the computer system with the temporary configuration settings, in the later initialization of the computer system the BIOS will initialize the computer system in accordance with the configuration settings originally stored in the CMOS RAM.
