Problems solved by technology

Accordingly, when the BIOS on the motherboard is damaged, recovery fails, or other factors make the BIOS unable to start, the computer system cannot be turned on. At this time, the BIOS needs to be restored.
[0003] Generally, the way to restore the BIOS is to enter the BIOS state after the computer is turned on to perform recovery actions. Therefore, when the computer cannot be turned on, the user cannot restore the BIOS by himself, and can only send the motherboard back to the factory for repair, or replace it with a new one. motherboard, quite inconvenient

Abstract

A basic input and output system recovery method and its update module and computer system. When the update module is coupled to the computer system and detects that the first startup unit is enabled, the program code stored in the storage unit in the update module is overwritten to the computer while the computer system is in standby mode. Basic input and output system in the system.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a computer system, and in particular to a method for restoring a Basic Input Output System (BIOS) of a computer system, an update module using the same, and a computer system. Background technique [0002] In a computer system, the basic input and output system plays an important role. When a general computer system is turned on, the BIOS will first be activated to perform a Power On Self Test (POST) to initialize peripheral hardware devices, and to perform computer operations after operating the operating system (OS) of the computer system. time and other functions. Accordingly, when the BIOS on the motherboard is damaged, recovery fails, or other factors make the BIOS unable to start, the computer system cannot be started. At this time, the BIOS needs to be recovered. [0003] Generally, the way to restore the BIOS is to enter the BIOS state after the computer is turned on to perform recovery actions. Therefore, whe...
