Can a virus infect the BIOS of a computer?

yes - If the BIOS of your computer is infected then, since it is hard-coded (firmware) on a chip, you could have irreparable damage. Also most anti-virus programs work within your operating system (Windows or MacO/S) so they don't detect BIOS infections. The only way to repair your BIOS is, if it can be, to Flashit. This is the process used to update the firmware on your BIOS chip. Check your computer or motherboard manufacturer to obtain the flash application, and the instructions for running it. Flashing the BIOS should place a new, uninfected version of firmware on the chip.
