Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention is a method for displaying file information and directory information in the file updating step, especially a method for displaying file information and directory information in the basic input output system (BIOS) updating step of a computer system. Background technique

[0002] In computer system architecture, the Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) is the most basic software in the basic operation of the computer system. The BIOS is mainly composed of a series of low-level instruction sets, which provide the most basic hardware tests when the computer system is running, define the characteristics of the computer system, and handle basic tasks. For example, when the computer system is turned on, it executes the computer system boot self-test, detects and manages basic auxiliary devices such as hard disks and keyboards, and transfers information between connection ports and the like. Therefore, when the computer system is turned on...

Embodiment Construction

[0043] The method for displaying file information and directory information in the basic input output system (BIOS) update step of the computer system of the present invention will be fully understood by the following embodiments, so that those of ordinary skill in the art can complete it accordingly, However, the implementation of the present invention cannot be limited by the following examples.

[0044] see figure 1, the present invention is a method for displaying file information and directory information in the basic input output system (BIOS) update step of a computer system. After the computer system 10 is turned on, it mainly uses a computer program stored in a basic input output system memory 15 ( BIOS program) to start its operation and configuration settings. And the burning program of BIOS is made up of a series of instruction sets, in order to allow the user to just be able to carry out the update of BIOS in the use stage of BIOS, the BIOS program recorded in BI...
