  • Page 85: System Bios

    System BIOS Introduction The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) of the computer is a collection of machine language programs stored as firmware in read-only memory (ROM). The system BIOS includes such functions as Power-On Self Test (POST), PCI device initialization, Plug 'n Play support, power management activities, and the Setup utility.

  • Page 86: Rom Flashing

    System BIOS 8.2 ROM Flashing The system BIOS firmware is contained in a flash ROM device that can be re-written with new BIOS code using a flash utility locally (with F10 setup), with the HPQFlash program in a Windows environment, or with the FLASHBIN.EXE utility in a DOS or DOS-like environment. 8.2.1 Upgrading Upgrading the BIOS is not normally required but may be necessary if changes are made to the unit's operating system, hard drive, or processor.

  • Page 87: Boot Functions

    System BIOS 8.3 Boot Functions The BIOS supports various functions related to the boot process, including those that occur during the Power On Self-Test (POST) routine. 8.3.1 Boot Device Order The default boot device order is as follows: 1. CD-ROM drive (EL Torito CD images) 2.

  • Page 88: Boot Error Codes

    System BIOS The BIOS performs memory detection and configuration with the following steps: 1. Program the buffer strength control registers based on SPD data and the DIMM slots that are populated. 2. Determine the common CAS latency that can be supported by the DIMMs. 3.

  • Page 90: System Id And Rom Type

    System BIOS 8.4.1 System ID and ROM Type Diagnostic applications can use the INT 15, AX=E800h BIOS function to identify the type of system. This function will return the system ID in the BX register. Systems have the following IDs and ROM family types: Table 8-3 System ID Numbers System (Form Factor)

  • Page 91: Smbios

    System BIOS 8.5 SMBIOS In support of the DMI specification, PnP functions 50h and 51h are used to retrieve the SMBIOS data. Function 50h retrieves the number of structures, size of the largest structure, and SMBIOS version. Function 51h retrieves a specific structure. This system supports SMBIOS version 2.5 and the structure types listed in the following table: Table 8-3 SMBIOS Functions...

  • Page 92: Usb Legacy Support

    System BIOS 8.6 USB Legacy Support The system BIOS ROM checks the USB port, during POST, for the presence of a USB keyboard. This allows a system with only a USB keyboard to be used during ROM-based setup and also on a system with an OS that does not include a USB driver.
