Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, when executing the BIOS, the time for the user to enter the setting menu is not only very short, but also difficult to grasp the timing
In order to enter the setting menu to change the boot device sequence, the user may repeatedly press the preset hotkey after turning on the power, wasting a lot of unnecessary effort
In addition, the user cannot know the content of the boot device sequence except entering the setting menu
Therefore, even if the user only wants to confirm the boot device sequence at that time, he must enter the setting menu to confirm when booting, which is very inconvenient

Abstract

The invention discloses a display method of booting device sequence, which is suitable for a computer. The computer has basic input / output system (BIOS) memory, random access memory and a display device, and the BIOS memory includes BIOS. The BIOS accesses a booting device sequence and the booting device sequence is directed to at least one booting device. The display method of the booting device sequence comprises the steps of: initializing the random access memory; reading the booting device sequence; initializing a video graphic array; loading at least one booting device icon to the random access memory according to the booting device sequence; and displaying the booting device icon, stored in the random access memory, in the display device by means of the video graphic array.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for displaying a boot device sequence, in particular to a method for displaying a boot device sequence during a booting stage. Background technique [0002] With the development of information technology, electronic devices based on processors, such as various computer (Computer, also known as computer) systems have been widely used by enterprises and individuals. The boot procedure of a general computer system is as follows. After turning on the power, the system will first perform a Power On Self Test (POST). The computer system loads a Basic Input / Output System (BIOS) to determine the most basic hardware architecture of the system and perform necessary initialization operations on the hardware. The BIOS then executes a boot loader (Boot Loader), and loads a boot program, such as a core program of an operating system of a computer, according to a boot device sequence (also called a boot order). After the s...
