Abstract

A back-up method for BIOS needs not to be executed in the operation system environment but to be executed in the stage of BIOS program execution. It interrupts the execution of BIOS program to excite the sintering record program stored in the BIOS internal memory for duplicating BIOS program onto the appointed carrier via the path appointed by sintering record program by a trigger of the hot key defined in BIOS program, and it only requires a simple operation environment with simple operation.

Description

A kind of method of back-up BIOS
Technical field
The present invention relates to the method for back-up BIOS procedural file in a computer system.Make the user can behind computer system power-on, carry out the stage of bios program, can the back-up BIOS procedural file and need under the environment of operating system, not carry out the back-up BIOS procedural file.
Background technology
In the framework of computer system, (basicinput-output system BIOS) is most basic software in the computer system basic operation to so-called Basic Input or Output System (BIOS).BIOS mainly is made up of the instruction set of a succession of low price, the characteristic of the most basic hardware testing, definition computer system and handle basic work when computer system operation is provided.Such as when the computer system power-on, the start selftest of computer system, peripheral device such as hard disk and keyboard that detecting is basic with management, and the transmission or the like of information between the connectivity port.Therefore, initial running during department of computer science unified start all is to carry out running according to the content of BIOS.If BIOS goes wrong, just the unified start of department of computer science can't be carried out the detecting as internal memory (RAM), hard disk (HD), central processing unit (CPU) etc., just then computer system can't be finished boot program smoothly.Just because of BIOS has possessed consequence like this in computer system, generally speaking, people all can with the bios program burning one can permanent power-source free non-voltile memory in, as Flash ROM, EEPROM etc., and will be built in the motherboard of computer system in this type of BIOS internal memory, make its content not influenced by the power supply supply and can forever preserve its content.
Yet BIOS can damage because of misoperation when the stand-by program content because of the user, or damage because of BIOS virus (for example CIH Chernobyl virus) invasion and attack, if bios program can be done suitable backup, after the BIOS damage, then the back-up BIOS program can be write back on the bios software by suitable computer program.
The method of common bios program archives backup, need be at operating system (OS), the software (Utility) that uses on DOS or the WINDOWS operating system for example, the bios program archives are backed up on the programmed recording medium of appointment, yet when the stand-by program archives, the environment of operation must be healed simply better, in order to avoid other program implementation influence the backup of BIOS, and in the time of can't carrying out this software (Utility) as if operating system generation problem, just can't carry out the back-up job of BIOS.
Summary of the invention
Purpose of the present invention just is to provide the method for a kind of operating environment back-up BIOS procedural file simple, easy and simple to handle.
The present invention realizes like this.The present invention adopts a computer program to realize that this program is recorded on the Basic Input or Output System (BIOS) internal memory, and this internal memory is more put down in writing a burning program, and this method comprises the following step:
A) carry out this BIOS system program;
B) in response to the generation of a trigger signals, interrupt the BIOS system program execution and
C) carry out this burning program, these BIOS system program archives are backed up in the carrier of appointment.
According to the method in order to back-up BIOS of the present invention, need in operating system environment, not carry out, but in stage that bios program is carried out, as seeing through the triggering of a defined hot key in the bios program, produce one scan sign indicating number signal, interrupt the execution of bios program and activate the burning program that is recorded in the BIOS internal memory, via the specified path of burning program, bios program is copied in the carrier of appointment a for example diskette sheet, a hard disk, a discs, a ZIP disk sheet.Therefore operating environment of the present invention is simple, easy and simple to handle.
The invention will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.
The drawing explanation
Fig. 1 is the calcspar of the method for back-up BIOS of the present invention.
Fig. 2 is the process flow diagram of the method for back-up BIOS of the present invention.
Among the figure, 11-CPU (central processing unit), 12-BIOS internal memory, 121-BIOS program, 122-burning program, 13-input media, 14-recording medium.
Embodiment
BIOS backup method in the computer system of the present invention can be understood fully by following embodiment explanation.
See also Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, for the backup that makes BIOS can be independent of the running of operating system, the burning program 122 of BIOS is described in a certain sector address interval of BIOS internal memory 12.The burning program 122 of BIOS is made up of a series of instruction set, and in order to allow the user just can carry out the backup of BIOS in the stage that BIOS carries out, the bios program of being put down in writing in the BIOS internal memory 121 has defined one " hot key ".The user is if the stage (step 101) that (step 100) carries out bios program behind computer system power-on, supress certain button (discriminant 102) from input media 13 as keyboard, the scan code of the button of being pressed (scancode) will be transferred into CPU (central processing unit) (CPU) 11 and handle.At this moment, bios program 121 can capture the scan code of the button that triggers and judge.If the scan code that the user pushed button is consistent with the scan code of the defined hot key of bios program, the execution of bios program 121 promptly is interrupted (step 104), and burning program 122 places that skip to another section place, address begin to carry out burning program (step 105).If the user does not trigger bios program 121 defined hot keys, then bios program 121 will continue to carry out (step 103).
When burning program was carried out, the user can import the path and the filename of BIOS backup file.The BIOS backup file comprises the bios program code of desire backup, it typically is one or two archives (binary file).Specify the path and filename of BIOS backup file as the user after, be stored in recording medium 14 as diskette sheet, hard disk, discs, LS-120 disk sheet.
BIOS backup method of the present invention is characterised in that the burning program 122 with bios program 121 and BIOS all is recorded among the BIOS internal memory 12, and has defined a hot key in bios program 121.If the user supresses hot key in the stage that bios program 121 is carried out, the program 121 of BIOS is carried out burning program 122 places of just interrupting and skipping to BIOS and is begun to carry out.Specify the path and the filename of BIOS backup file via the user, burning program 122 just can back up bios program.The user can not need the boot program of first load operation system to activate the burning program 122 of BIOS again, but activates the burning program 122 of BIOS in stage that BIOS carries out with a hot key, uses to overcome the difficulty that prior art meets with.
The invention is not restricted to the foregoing description.

Claims (2)
