  • Patent number: 8230211
    Abstract: A BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) setting method is disclosed, which is applicable to a computer equipped with a MEMORY a CMOS RAM (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor Random Access Memory), and a BIOS-ROM (Basic Input/Output System Read-Only Memory) storing a first setting document. The BIOS setting method includes: providing a setting interface to allow a user to perform settings so as to form a second setting document; storing the second setting document in the BIOS-ROM; and loading the first and second setting documents to the MEMORY during a POST (Power On Self Test) process of the computer; saving the first setting document, or alternatively revising the first setting document and/or combining the first setting document with the second setting document according to the second setting document if loaded, so as to form a third setting document; and loading the third setting document to the CMOS RAM to perform a system initialization according to the third setting document.
