Plate, CMOS memory, serial paralled interface, display card and keyboard are tested, and once pinpoint the problems in self-inspection, and system will provide prompting
Information or whistling warning.Self-inspection is such as found to have mistake, will process by two kinds of situations: for catastrophe failure (critical fault) then
Shut down, now do not complete due to various initialization operations, it is impossible to provide any prompting or signal；Noncritical failure is then given
Go out prompting or audible ringing signal, wait that user processes.
2. initialize, including creating interrupt vector, arranging depositor, some external equipments are initialized and detect
Deng, a most critically important part is that BIOS is arranged, mainly some parameters to hardware setting, can read when launch computer
These parameters, and compare with actual hardware setting, if do not met, the startup of system can be affected.
3. bootstrap, function is to guide DOS or other operating system.BIOS first reads from the beginning sector of floppy disk or hard disk
Take leader record, without finding, then can be displayed without guiding equipment over the display, if finding the leader record can be electricity
The control of brain is given to leader record, leader record operating system is loaded computer, after launch computer success, and this of BIOS
Partial task just completes.
Under generally conventional pattern, BIOS is refreshed and can only be carried out by DOS system, and that you are to be done is exactly FreeDOS
