Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for configuring on-board firmware to facilitate configuration operations on the on-board firmware and improve configuration efficiency. The method includes: providing a unified entry of the onboard firmware configuration item list menu on the BIOS setting interface; after detecting that the user selects the onboard firmware configuration item list menu, displaying the onboard firmware configuration item list; displaying the onboard firmware configuration item list At the same time or after, the reset function of all onboard firmware configuration items is disabled; after it is detected that the user has completed the configuration of the selected onboard firmware configuration items, a system reset is performed uniformly. Compared with the prior art that requires a system reset every time after completing the configuration of an onboard firmware configuration item, the method provided by the present invention can complete the system reset at one time, which facilitates user operations and improves the onboard firmware configuration. configuration efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of computers, in particular to a method and device for configuring onboard firmware. Background technique [0002] Among the abundant computer peripheral devices, many devices have on-board firmware (ie OptionROM). The so-called onboard firmware refers to the Basic Input / Output System (BIOS) part that exists in the storage chip that comes with the device (for example, the SAS card has a storage chip). It provides the same hardware drivers as the operating system. Functions, including allowing basic software to initialize, configure and access external devices that it cannot directly access, such as onboard firmware for SAS cards, PXE onboard firmware for network cards, etc. These onboard firmware provide rich configuration functions. At present, the configuration under the BIOS, except the configuration of the onboard firmware, is mainly performed in the Setup menu. [0003] A method for configuring the onbo...
